Frequently Asked Questions
What is the MOQ for Polyglactin 910 sutures?
MOQ depends on specifications. Contact us via Quick Quote with your USP size, needle type, and quantity — we respond within 24 hours.
Is this the same as Vicryl?
Polyglactin 910 (E20008) is manufactured to equivalent specifications as Vicryl-type sutures. It is not a branded Ethicon product — it is a CE-certified generic equivalent available at competitive bulk pricing.
What is the difference between Polyglactin 910 and PGA?
Both are braided absorbable sutures with similar clinical applications. Polyglactin 910 absorbs slightly faster (56–70 days vs 60–90 days for PGA) and has a coating that provides smoother tissue passage. PGA is often chosen for cost-sensitive bulk procurement. See our PGA Suture page for a full comparison.
What documentation is available for import?
CE Declaration of Conformity, ISO 13485 certificate, batch sterility certificate, COA, and MSDS. Additional market-specific documents available on request.
What is the shelf life?
3–5 years from manufacture date under recommended storage conditions (cool, dry, away from direct sunlight).
Can I order samples first?
Yes. Sample lead time is 5–7 business days. Request via Quick Quote form — specify USP size and needle type needed.
