AMS Advacat CATGUT Chromic 1 75cm 1/2 Circle RB 43mm

The AMS Advacat Chromic Catgut Suture Size 1 (75cm) is an absorbable, sterile surgical suture made from purified connective tissue (mostly collagen) derived from healthy sheep intestines. It is treated with chromic salt solution to delay absorption and reduce tissue reactivity, making it ideal for internal surgical procedures requiring medium-term wound support.
