Medical Textile Fibre

•Fibresused in to medical application falls into two groups

1.Commodity fibre

2.Speciality fibre

Commodity Fibre

Natural & RegeneratedFibre1. Cotton2. Silk3. Viscose Synthetic Fibre1. Polyester2. Polypropylene3. PTFE(poly tetrafluoroethylene)4. Polyamide5. Carbon6. GlassFibre

SpecialityFibre

Collagen: This is obtained from cow skin.

Calcium Alginate:This is made from brown seaweed

Chitosan

It is obtained from treating Chitin with alkali.

Classification of Medical textile The textiles used in medical and surgical
