MITSU AB™ is a mid-term absorbable, braided synthetic suture made of poly(glycolide-co-L-lactide) (90/10) and coated with Triclosan, an antibacterial agent. MITSU AB™ is designed for general soft-tissue approximation and/or ligation across suitable surgical procedures. The suture undergoes degradation through hydrolysis, providing a predictable absorption profile. The Triclosan coating is intended to inhibit the colonization of pathogens on the suture.
Key Features

Predictable Absorption
MITSU AB™ gradually loses tensile strength and undergoes absorption through hydrolysis. It retains approximately 75% of its knot tensile strength for up to 14 days and 50% for up to 21 days, followed by complete mass absorption approximately within 56–70 days. This mid-term absorption profile provides temporary support during the initial stages of tissue healing.
Instructions for Use
For detailed information regarding indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions, storage conditions, handling, and instructions for use, please refer to the MITSU AB™ Instructions for Use (IFU).
Indication
MITSU AB™ is indicated for general soft-tissue approximation and/or ligation across suitable surgical procedures where an absorbable suture is appropriate. The selection of the appropriate suture should consider tissue characteristics, surgical procedure, wound requirements, surgical technique, and surgeon's clinical judgment.
