Description of Janteng Polydioxanone (PDO or PDS) suture

• Synthetic suture absorbable monofilament suture with violet color.
• P-dioxanone polymer.
• Offers minimum tissue reactivity.
• Absorption is made by hydrolytic slow progressive action completed in 200 days approximately.
• The original tensile resistance in vivo holds between 65 and 70% in four weeks and 50 and 60% after 6th week.
• Color Code: Silver and black label.
• Frequently used in tissue coaptation that slowly heals.
