Ethicon MONOCRYL PLUS violet USP 3-0 70cm Taperpoint 22mm 1/2C (MCP219G)

MONOCRYL PLUS violet USP 3-0 is a monofilament, absorbable surgical suture manufactured from poliglecaprone 25 and coated with triclosan to inhibit bacterial colonisation along the suture line. It is engineered to provide rapid tensile strength loss and predictable absorption compared with longer-term absorbable sutures, making it well suited to veterinary procedures where short-term wound support and efficient tissue healing are clinically required. The monofilament construction ensures smooth tissue passage, low tissue drag, and reduced capillarity, supporting consistent handling and secure knot formation.

The violet colour enhances visibility within the surgical field, particularly in deeper or less well-illuminated tissue planes, aiding accurate placement and suture management. Supplied at a length of 70cm, this USP 3-0 suture is appropriate for a wide range of veterinary soft tissue and subcutaneous closure applications. The 22mm 1/2 circle taperpoint needle is designed to separate tissue fibres rather than cut them, minimising tissue trauma and supporting optimal healing outcomes in delicate and moderately dense tissues.
