The suture is hydrophobic, i.e., it absorbs practically no water and is chemically inert.
Due to its non-thrombogenic properties MOPYLEN™ is indicated for use in all types of general soft tissue approximation and ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, microsurgery and neurological procedures and for sutures which, as permanent implants, must remain unchanged in the tissues, even in inflammatory or infected wounds.

Furthermore, MOPYLEN™ is an ideal skin suture, especially in plastic surgery and wherever an especially good cosmetic
result of the suture is required.

The material is coloured with a physiologically safe dye.
