Description

CliniGut Plain is an absorbable natural sterile surgical suture manufactured from uniform, twisted strands of collagen derived from purified bovine intestine. The sutures are spun and polished into a uniform near monofilament-like strand, allowing ease of passage through tissue and excellent knot security.
