Blue Medical-Grade Biofiber

Spectra® MG fiber

Honeywell, Morris Plains, NJ, has expanded its medical-grade biofiber portfolio with a blue-hued fiber that provides a strong visual aid to better differentiate between multiple suture sets in more complex surgeries. The new Spectra® MG fiber can be used to create increasingly smaller, stronger, and lighter devices. Engineered to be both ultra-lightweight and ultra-high strength, the fiber provides superior resistance to chemicals, fatigue, and abrasion when compared to conventional polyethylene fiber. For the orthopedic market, the colored fiber could be used for smart implants that flag dangerous bacterial presence.
