Pack of 10 filaments.Doccol MCAO (middle cerebral artery occlusion) sutures most trusted for inducing ischemic stroke models in rats and mice. Only for lab research use (RUO).

Doccol provides MCAO (middle cerebral artery occlusion) sutures for inducing ischemic stroke models in rats and mice. MCAO sutures are silicone-rubber coated nylon monofilaments, in which the silicone-rubber coating is engineered for ensuring a complete occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) origin while avoiding subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Using Doccol MCAO sutures for inducing stroke models has been reported to be able to drastically decrease the within-group variation of stroke models, reducing the standard deviation (SD) to 5% of the mean value for infarction volume.

MCAO sutures are available in nylon monofilament material USP size 3-0, 4-0, 5-0, 6-0, 7-0, and 8-0, which are categorized first by coating diameter, then further by coating length.

Doccol products are referred by over a thousand scholarly articles.
