AD Surgical UNIFY Polydioxanone (PDO) Sutures. Monofilament Violet. Each box contains 12 individually sterilized foil packs of sutures and one instruction sheet. The suture is sterilized with Ethylene Oxide (EO) gas and has a shelf life of 3 years from the manufacturing date. UNIFY® Polydioxanone sutures, better known as PDO, is a monofilament synthetic absorbable surgical suture. It is non-antigenic, non-pyrogenic, and elicits minimal tissue reactivity during the absorption process. PDO is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation, including use in pediatric cardiovascular and ophthalmic procedures. Polydioxanone suture is not indicated in adult cardiovascular tissue, microsurgery, and neural tissue. This suture is particularly useful when the combination of an absorbable suture and extended wound support (up to six weeks) is desirable. Our PDO sutures meet all requirements established by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP). US FDA Approved.
