Applications
Chromic Gut sutures are used in a wide range of surgical procedures where a naturally absorbable material is appropriate. The chromic treatment delays absorption compared to plain gut, making these sutures suitable for tissues that require slightly longer wound support. The 4-0 size and Micro-Point Cutting needle configuration are commonly used in ophthalmic, plastic, oral, and general soft-tissue surgery. Chromic Gut is one of the oldest and most established suture materials in surgical practice and remains in use today for procedures where synthetic absorbables are not preferred or required by surgical protocol. Ethicon, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson, is one of the leading manufacturers of surgical sutures worldwide.
