Chromic Surgical Catgut Sutures are a specialized type of absorbable suture made from purified connective tissue, primarily collagen, derived from the serosal layer of bovine intestines. They are treated with chromic salt solutions to prolong their absorption within the body and to minimize tissue reaction. These sutures are known for their twisted multifilament structure that gives a monofilament appearance, ensuring smooth passage through tissue and reliable knot security. Chromic Catgut Sutures are typically used in general closure, soft tissue approximation, and ligation in surgeries such as ophthalmic, gastrointestinal tract, and obstetrics/gynecology. They are preferred for their ability to join and regenerate tissues rapidly, which is crucial in surgical procedures. However, the rate of tensile strength loss and absorption can vary based on the suture type, the tissue site, and the presence of infection. It's important to note that while Chromic Catgut Sutures are absorbed by the body through phagocytosis, the process is less predictable than with synthetic sutures, and complete absorption usually occurs within 90 days An absorbable, sterile surgical suture composed of purified connective tissue.

Dehorning is a common practice in livestock management, primarily aimed at ensuring the safety and welfare of both the animals and their handlers. The process involves removing the horns of cattle, which can be potentially dangerous. The benefits of dehorning are multifaceted: it reduces the risk of injury to other cattle, as horned animals can cause harm to each other, especially in close quarters. For handlers, dehorned cattle are safer to manage and transport, minimizing the risk of injuries during routine handling or when moving the animals between locations. Additionally, dehorned cattle require less space at feeding troughs, which can lead to more efficient feeding practices and reduced competition among animals. This can also translate to less bruising of carcasses during transportation to slaughter facilities, which is not only a welfare concern but also has economic implications. Furthermore, the removal of horns is believed to reduce aggressive behaviors associated with dominance, leading to a more harmonious herd dynamic.
