The purpose of the study was to examine the effect of gamma irradiation on the enzymatic as well as the in vivo degradation of polyglycolic acid sutures. The sutures of size 2-0 were irradiated at dosage levels of 0-20 mrad. The three enzymes chosen for this study were esterase, alpha-chymotrypsin,
