Antibacterial surgical suture in Russia

The Russian Antibacterial Surgical Surgical Line “Nipponte” has already begun to promote its use. It is coated with a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent on the outer layer of polyamide filaments. It also contains a biological active ingredient—polysaccharides, chitin, and antibiotics. The synergistic effect with the bioactive components, the bioactive components also simplify the modification process of the suture, and reduce the amount of the antibacterial agent under the premise of increasing the ecological index of the suture.

"Nyunter" antibacterial surgical sutures were developed by Russia's "Synthetic Fiber Science Research Institute". Its technical specifications are as follows: Unit breaking load 50-60cN/tex, elongation at break 15% -18%, strength loss at knotting Not more than 40%, capillary action 1.5%-2.0%, elastic modulus (hardness) 70-80 cN/tex, comprehensive ecological activity (+), postoperative adverse reaction rate 5.26%.

The antibacterial agents were gradually separated during the wound healing period (1-10 days), and the most separated on the 1-2th day. The drug concentration was maintained within the effective range on the 3-5th day until the wound healed. Its antibacterial properties prevent the wounds from appearing infected, and the bioactive components of the suture can stimulate cell growth and wound epithelial cell formation.
