Trugut is an absorbable surgical suture made from twisted, polished sheep/goat submucosa (catgut), available in Plain (Yellow) and Chromic (Brown) forms. It offers minimal tissue reaction, high tensile strength, and smooth passage. Chromic absorbs in 90–120 days, Plain in 60–70 days. USP sizes 5-0 to 2.

Description

Features Of Trugut

  • Causes minimal tissue reaction
  • High collagen purity
  • Polished to give uniformity of diameter along the strand and a smooth surface for easy tissue passage.
  • Packed in isopropyl alcohol to keep the suture soft, flexible and improve handling.
  • Uniform twist spread along the suture length and controlled drying provide high tensile strength

Trugut is available in Plain Catgut (Yellow) and Chromic Catgut (Brown). Chromic Catgut, due to its chrome content, is absorbed within 90 – 120 days.

Applications

  • Soft tissue approximation and/or ligation

Trugut Sutures are made from longitudinally slitting the intestinal submucosa of sheep and goat followed by a process of twisting and polishing giving the sutures a monofilament finish. The uniform chrome content in Trugut Chromic provides required wound support and absorption. It retains about 50% of the initial tensile strength after 7 to 10 days of implantation and is absorbed by body tissue within 90 – 120 days. Plain catgut initial tensile strength is lost within 7 to 10 days and is absorbed completely in 60 to 70 days. Catgut sutures tend to absorb faster in infected tissues.

Technical Details

  • Absorbable sterile surgical suture
  • Available in Plain Catgut (Yellow) and Chromic Catgut (Brown).
  • Non-adhering and biologically inert
  • Sterilized by ethylene oxide
  • Shelf life of 5 years

Range

  • USP sizes available: 5-0 to 2.
  • Suture length without needle: 152 cm, 2×76 cm
  • Suture length with needle: from 76 cm to 152 cm
  • Needle lengths: 12 mm to 65 mm across all needle profiles

What is Trugut suture made from?
Trugut is an absorbable surgical suture made from the twisted, polished submucosa of sheep or goat intestines (catgut), available in Plain (yellow) and Chromic (brown) variants for different absorption needs, offering minimal tissue reaction and smooth passage during use.
Chromic Trugut is treated with chromium salts, extending absorption to 90–120 days for longer wound support. Plain Trugut absorbs faster, within 60–70 days, for tissue needing less prolonged support, making the choice between them dependent on the specific tissue type and expected healing timeline involved.
Trugut is used for soft tissue approximation and ligation during surgery — bringing tissue edges together and tying off blood vessels — where an absorbable suture eliminates the need for removal, reducing patient discomfort and follow-up visits after the procedure is complete.
Chromic Trugut retains about 50% of its initial tensile strength after 7 to 10 days of implantation, providing wound support during the critical early healing period before it’s fully absorbed, with complete absorption by body tissue occurring within 90 to 120 days overall.
Yes, catgut sutures like Trugut tend to absorb faster in infected tissue, since the body’s enzymatic breakdown process accelerates in the presence of infection, potentially shortening effective wound support time.
Trugut is available in USP sizes 5-0 to 2, with suture lengths from 76cm to 152cm, needle lengths from 12mm to 65mm across all needle profiles, and a 5-year shelf life when stored properly in a cool, dry place.
