An excellent monofilament suture choice for high-risk patients or procedures where bacterial presence is a concern. Inhibits
bacterial colonization of the suture by such known pathogens as E. coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus,
Staphylococcus epidermidis, methicillin-resistant S. aureus and methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis. In vivo testing has
demonstrated the ability of Monocryl* Plus antibacterial suture to kill such bacteria as E. coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Excellent out-of-package strength. Great pliability for smooth, even passage through tissue. Easier to knot for precise knot
placement.
