Background
The choice of appropriate surgical suture during operation is of great significance. Currently, there are no
Conclusions
The study indicated that sutures made of polydioxanone had the best qualities during the entire experiment.
Methods
This fact leads one to conduct research concerning the resistance of the sutures (Polydioxanone, Poliglecaprone, Poliglactin 910, and their analogues coated with antibacterial triclosan) in the environment of sterile and contaminated bile and pancreatic juice. Tensile strength was tested at days 0, 7, 14, 21, and 28 of research. The study was performed in in vitro conditions for 28 days. (3)
Results
Pancreatic juice and bile has a significant influence on the tensile strength of each suture. (4) Conclusions: The study indicated that sutures made of polydioxanone had the best qualities during the entire experiment.
