title: [Influence of suture materials on cell viability: a comparative experimental study].
abstract: Among the conditions that a material must satisfy to be considered biocompatible, most important is the non negative influence on the cellular viability of the surrounding tissue (cytocompatibility). The aim of our work was to evaluate in vitro, whether different types of materials (usually used in surgery), alter the viability parameters or the morphological characteristics of the cultured cells in contact with them.
