## Abstract The selection of suture materials is an important factor in further improving the results of microsurgical operations. In this study, two kinds of nonabsorbable suture materials, 10β0 polypropylene and 10β0 nylon monofilament, were compared in endβtoβend anastomosis of 66 femoral arteri
10.0 nylon sutures from three different manufacturers were compared on the basis of the scanning electron microscopic aspect, the maximum tensile strength of the thread and the maximum tensile strength of the knot (single throw). Scanning electron microscopy revealed identical surface characteristic
The tissue reaction to 10-0 nylon sutures sterilized with ")'-rays was compared to the reaction caused by 10-0 nylon thread sterilized with ethylene oxide. In a vascularized cornea more tissue reaction was seen to 10-0 nylon thread sterilized with ")'-rays than to sutures sterilized with ethylene ox
