  • Title: [Influence of surgical knots on physical characteristics of atraumatic sutures].
    Author: Nardi P, Barone R, Borghini G.
    Journal: Stomatol Mediterr; 1989; 9(4):407-9. PubMed ID: 2701139.
    Abstract:
    Some specimens of atraumatic sutures (silk and multifilament polyster) have been tested after multiple knottings in order to evaluate the physical features in a situation more similar to clinical procedures. The results showed the knots did not interfere with the tensile strength.
