Chiralen monofilament is a non-absorbable suture made of polypropylene. The thread is hydrophobic and is not subject to degradation by tissue enzymes.
Chiralen monofilament has a smooth, non-porous surface, that guarantees a clean and smooth passage through the tissue, optimal elasticity, good elongation properties and high visibility. In tissues, it can cause a minimal acute inflammatory reaction.
