MITSU degrades by hydrolysis and assures predictable and reliable absorption.<\/p>\n<p>MITSUTM Polyglactin 910 suture leads to growth of fibrous connective tissue due to (minimal) initial inflammatory tissue reaction.<br \/> MITSU gradually loses tensile strength and is finally absorbed by hydrolytic process. During hydrolysis, the copolymer degrades to gylcolic and lactic acids which are then absorbed and metabolized in the<br \/> body. Significant tensile strength i.e. 75% of the original is retained<br \/> until initial 14 days, 40%-50% of the original is retained until 21 days (6-0 and larger) &amp; (7-0 and smaller) and 24% of the original is<br \/> retained until initial 28 days (6-0 and larger). There is a subsequent loss between four to five weeks post implantation. Complete absorption of MITSU suture usually takes place between 56 to 75 days.<\/p>\n<p>Sterility: MITSU Polyglactin 910 sutures are sterilized by ethylene oxide (EtO). Do not re-sterilize, if re-sterilize, product may degrade and not perform as intended. Do not use if package is opened or damaged. Discard opened remaining unused sutures. Contradictions: Being absorbable, MITSU suture is not recommended where extended approximation of tissues under stress is required. Storage: Recommended storage conditions for MITSU Polyglactin 910 sutures is between 15OC and 30OC, away from moisture and direct heat. Do not use after expiry date<\/p>\n<p><\/body><\/html><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MITSU is a mid-term absorbable braided and coated synthetic suture made of poly (glycolide-co-l-lactide) (90\/10). <\/p>\n<p>MITSU degrades by hydrolysis and assures predictable and reliable absorption.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":27417,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[1063],"product_cat":[4046],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-29128","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-meril-1","product_cat-suture","first","instock","sale","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/storemedica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/29128","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/storemedica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/storemedica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storemedica.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=29128"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storemedica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/27417"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/storemedica.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=29128"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storemedica.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_brand&post=29128"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storemedica.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=29128"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storemedica.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=29128"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
