This suture is coloured with violet colour to achieve easy visibility on tissue. Polydioxanone polymer has non-antigen and non-pyrogenic structure. Polidiox monofilament, synthetic, absorbable sutures can be used in ophthalmic applications as well as paediatric cardiovascular tissue where growth is expected.
