Monocrylâ¢ sutures are made from a polymer material called poliglecaprone 25, a mixture of a glycolide and epilson-caprolactone. The synthetic material is designed to cause minimal damage to soft tissue when the suture is passed through it.This suture is also biodegradable. Monocrylâ¢ suture is also available in an antibacterial form. These destroy the bacteria that may come into contact with the stitches and inhibit the growth of colonies of naturally occurring bacterium within the wound. This may promote a faster healing time.
