Abstract
Fibre materials, including sutures, with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, analgesic properties, enzyme activity, and radioactive, antitumoral, and immunosuppressant characteristics, with both an individual and a combined biological action in different combinations, have been developed. Many biologically active suture materials with atraumatic needles in sterile packaging are mass produced by LINTEKS Co., St. Petersburg, based on resolutions of the Federal Service for Public Health and Social Development Inspection.
