Chromic Catgut Suture Cutting Tudor Per Box Catgut or gut suture is an absorbable suture usually manufactured from the intestine of sheep or goat. Catgut suture is composed of highly purified connective tissue derived from either beef or sheep intestines. The membrane is chemically treated and slender strands are woven together to form a suture. The grinding process creates a strand of uniform diameter. The suture strand is then further polished to achieve maximum smoothness, for reliability and strength. Catgut suture are available in the form of plain catgut or chromic catgut. Chromic catgut is treated with chromium salt solution to resist body enzymes and slower the absorption process thus supporting the wound for longer periods. Chromic gut is chromicised before it is spun into strands. This allows control over the amount of chromic content for an even absorption rate. The chromic content not only increases the tensile strength, but also reduces tissue irritation. Catgut sutures are sterilized by a sterilizing fluid containing EO, distilled water and isopropyl alcohol.
