|
Tensile strength
|
The tensile strength of the suture progressive loss occurs as a result of a hydrolysis process that degrades PGA [Polyglycolic acid] allowing the absorption & subsequent metabolism by organism; Studies performed show that the absorption of the surgical suture is practically complete in about 60-90 days after implantation.
