Description
Needle-suture combination Dafilon®/DS16 pairs a DS16 needle with black Dafilon® suture for laboratory and histological applications that need clear thread visibility and stable needle control. Suture length is 45 cm at USP 4/0, a slightly heavier gauge than finer sizes while remaining suitable for precise specimen work and instrument practice. The pack contains 36 pc(s), supporting multi-station use or higher-throughput preparation without frequent restocking. Black colouration aids contrast on light backgrounds and under typical microscopy lighting. Pack weight is 0,234 kg. Offered from manufacturer B. Braun, this combination belongs with special instruments for needles and suture materials used in labware, microscopy, and histology environments. Each unit keeps needle and thread together so operators can open only what is needed for a given task. The DS16 needle designation and fixed 45 cm length help standardise technique across training and routine bench procedures. USP 4/0 Dafilon® in black provides a practical option when darker suture is preferred for marking, orientation, or visual tracking during handling.
This article belongs on Needles & cannulas, in Syringes & needles.

Questions about Needle-suture combination Dafilon®/DS16, Black, L 45 cm, USP 4/0, 36 unit(s)
What is this article?
Needle-suture combination Dafilon®/DS16, Black, L 45 cm, USP 4/0, 36 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes B. Braun for laboratory use. It sits in Needles & cannulas, inside Syringes & needles, in Lab consumables.
A needle or a cannula is specified by gauge, length and point, and by how it connects, Luer or cemented. A blunt needle is for transfer. A sharp needle is for piercing. Gauge is the outer diameter: a higher gauge is a thinner needle. The fitting has to match the syringe.
A syringe is a barrel and a piston. A disposable syringe is for transfer and injection. A microlitre syringe is a precise analytical tool, often with a cemented or removable needle, used to inject into a chromatograph. The needle gauge and the point, and the Luer or cemented connection, have to match the job. A Luer slip and a Luer lock are not the same fitting. In-vitro and diagnostic context is under ISO in vitro diagnostic systems.
