Comparison tensile strength of different sutur materials

Abstract Objectives: The purpose of this study is to compare the tensile strength different types surgical suture materials. Materials and Methods: Current study, strengths 4 materials made were compared. [(1-4/0 silk 2- 4/0 propylene 3-4/0 Polyamide 4- Poly[Glycolide-Co-L-Lactide](90%:10%) (PGLA) suture)] a total 40 samples was calculated, with 10 in each group. In sutures calculated using universal tester, tightened both poles test device fixed distance 15 mm between poles, force applied so that moved away from other at speed 25cm/min until broke, value moment brake recorded Newton units (N) as suture.Statistical analysis data evaluated by One-Way ANOVA Tukey HSD tests. Results: statistical materials, difference tension resistance PGLA not statistically significant, but all significant (p <0.05). Tensile determined propylene, polyamide, pgla suture, respectively. Conclusion:Within limitation study.It has been stated may be more advantageous than PGLA, ,polyamide suture. Keywords: Sutures ,Tensile ,Break
