Ethicon PDS PLUS undyed USP 3-0 70cm Conventional Cutting PC 26mm 3/8C (PDP9625H)

PDS™ PLUS Undyed USP 3-0 (PDP9625H) is manufactured from polydioxanone (PDS) and coated with triclosan, providing broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against common surgical-site pathogens. The antibacterial coating helps inhibit bacterial colonisation of the suture, supporting a reduced risk of surgical site infection compared with non-antibacterial sutures.

As a long-term absorbable monofilament suture, PDS™ PLUS retains significant tensile strength over an extended period, with gradual absorption typically completed by approximately 180 days. This profile makes it particularly suitable for procedures requiring prolonged wound support, including skin and soft tissue closures under sustained tension.

The USP 3-0 size provides an excellent balance of strength and precision. The undyed monofilament construction minimises tissue drag, reduces tissue reaction, and resists bacterial wicking—complementing the antibacterial coating for improved healing outcomes.

Supplied with a 26 mm conventional cutting PC needle (3/8 circle), this configuration is optimised for skin closure where controlled cutting action and precise penetration are required. The 70 cm strand length offers flexibility for longer closure runs and larger operative fields.

Individually sterile packed, PDS™ PLUS PDP9625H delivers trusted antibacterial suture performance manufactured by Ethicon (Johnson & Johnson) for dependable veterinary and medical wound closure.
