LuxSutures LUXAMID Veterinary Non-Absorbable Surgical Sutures are nylon monofilament sutures supplied in sterile veterinary cassettes, designed to deliver reliable long-term wound support across a wide range of animal surgical procedures.
Manufactured from polyamide 6.0 or 6.6, LUXAMID sutures provide excellent tensile strength, smooth handling, and minimal tissue reactivity, making them suitable for routine and advanced veterinary surgery. The blue monofilament construction improves visibility in animal tissue while reducing tissue drag and capillarity.
Although classified as non-absorbable, LUXAMID nylon sutures are gradually encapsulated by connective tissue. Over time, the suture mass diminishes by approximately 10% per year through slow hydrolytic rupture of chemical bonds, providing prolonged mechanical support without rapid degradation.
Supplied in cassette format, LuxSutures LUXAMID allows efficient storage, quick identification, and streamlined workflow within veterinary theatres and practices.
