ABSTRACT:
A catgut suture includes a dehydrothermal cross-linked collagen coating which is insoluble in tubing solution. The collagen coating is formed by immersing the gut suture in a solution of collagen in acidified water. Optionally, a plasticizer may be included in the coating solution. The suture is then heated in a vacuum to effect cross-linking of the collagen.
