A natural polymer-based absorbable surgical suture and a method for preparing the same
By controlling the degree of deacetylation of chitin, suture models with different degradation rates were designed. Combined with wet twisting technology and a preparation method without chemical cross-linking agents, the problem of mismatch between suture degradation rate and tissue healing cycle was solved, resulting in sutures with high biocompatibility and mechanical properties suitable for surgical procedures.

AI Technical Summary
Existing absorbable sutures have uncontrollable degradation rates, making it impossible to accurately match the healing cycles of different tissues, and they also suffer from insufficient biocompatibility and mechanical properties.
By controlling the degree of deacetylation (DD) of chitin, suture models with different degradation rates were designed. Using natural polymer-based materials, combined with wet twisting technology and a preparation method without chemical cross-linking agents, skin repair and muscle repair sutures were prepared.
It achieves a precise match between the suture degradation rate and the tissue healing cycle, improves biocompatibility and mechanical properties, meets surgical standards, and is environmentally friendly.
