Collection details
SutureVet stocks a comprehensive range of bovine sutures engineered for the demands of cattle surgery and large animal veterinary practice. From caesarean sections and rumenotomies to teat repairs and orthopaedic closures, our suture materials are selected for strength, knot security, and reliable tissue handling in bovine patients.
Cattle surgery often requires heavy-gauge materials capable of holding tension across thick tissue layers. Our bovine suture range includes absorbable polyglycolic acid and polyglactin sutures for internal closures, as well as robust non-absorbable nylon and polypropylene options for skin and external applications. Taper point and reverse cutting needle configurations are available to suit both visceral and cutaneous procedures.
All products meet ISO manufacturing standards and are trusted by farm vets, large animal practices, and agricultural veterinary surgeons across the UK. Bulk and trade pricing is available, making SutureVet the practical choice for high-volume bovine caseloads.

Ethicon MONOCRYL is a sterile synthetic absorbable monofilament surgical suture manufactured from poliglecaprone 25, a copolymer of glycolide and ε-caprolactone. It is designed to provide high initial tensile strength, smooth tissue passage and predictable absorption.
This USP 2-0 violet variant measures 70 cm (27 inches) and is supplied in a double-armed configuration with SH 1/2 circle needles (Plus version), supporting symmetrical closure techniques and efficient wound approximation.
Poliglecaprone 25 has been found to be non-antigenic, non-pyrogenic and elicits only minimal tissue reaction during the absorption process. The violet colour is achieved using D&C Violet No.2 during polymerisation for enhanced visibility in the surgical field.
MONOCRYL complies with the European Pharmacopoeia requirements for sterile synthetic absorbable monofilament sutures and the United States Pharmacopoeia requirements for absorbable surgical sutures (except for slight diameter oversize as specified by the manufacturer).
Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 36 for professional surgical environments.
