Overview
ETHICON™ ETHIBOND EXCEL® Polyester Sutures are nonabsorbable, braided, sterile, surgical suture composed of poly (ethylene, terephthalate).

  • Prepared from fibers of highest molecular weight, long-chain, linear polyesters having recurrent aromatic rings as an integral component
  • Uniformly coated with polybutilate or poly {oxy-1, 4 butanediyloxy (1, 6-dioxo-1, 6 hexanediyl)
  • The highly adherent coating is a relatively nonreactive, nonabsorbable compound that acts a lubricant to mechanically improve the physical properties of the uncoated suture by improving handling qualities as contrasted to the braided, uncoated fiber
  • The suture is braided for optimal handling properties, and dyed green for enhanced visibility in the surgical field
