MERSILK Ethicon Suture, Ethicon silk suture with braided (with core) and twisted structure, flexible, manageable and comfortable to knot. It remains indefinitely in the body.

Ethicon's Mersik braided silk suture is obtained from select raw materials selected with strict criteria of hardness and resistance.

The exclusive “degumming” process that eliminates up to 30% of the original material is key to obtaining purer filament.

The inclusion of the core and the electronic control of the braiding ensure maximum resistance and optimal knotting.
