The Story

  • Sofsilk sutures are non-absorbable, sterile, non-mutagenic surgical sutures composed of natural proteinaceous silk fibers called fibroin
  • The braided sutures are available coated uniformly with either silicone or a special wax mixture to reduce capillarity and to increase surface lubricity, which enhances handling characteristics, ease of passage through tissue, and knot run-down properties
  • The manufacturing process, from braiding to coating, gives the suture superior softness and compliance for maximum surgical handling
  • The proprietary coating process provides smooth flow through tissue while maintaining optimal knot security. Sofsilk sutures are for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, microsurgery, and neurological surgery
