Aeos™ ePTFE Suture Monofilament (ASM) is Class VI approved, non-absorbable, and can be used as a permanent implant. Needles can be swaged onto ASM down to a 1:1 needle-to-suture ratio. Available license-free and in bulk quantities.
The operating table, that is. Zeus Aeos™ ePTFE extrusions are made by expanding PTFE under controlled conditions during manufacturing. The result is a microporous product that is flexible and strong. The structure of ePTFE supports new tissue ingrowth. Chemically inert, this material provokes little to no immune response and results in less scarring. Aeos™ sutures maintain a high tensile strength and perform well in stressful anatomical environments. ASM is USP Class VI approved and non-toxic.
