Description
Needle-suture combination Dafilon®/DS16 is a ready-to-use suture assembly combining a DS16 needle with blue Dafilon® suture material for controlled handling in laboratory and histological work. The thread length is 45 cm and the gauge is USP 5/0, giving a fine profile suited to precise tissue approximation and specimen preparation under the microscope. Supplied as a pack of 12 pc(s), the combination keeps needle and suture paired for consistent workflow at the bench. The blue colour supports visual contrast against tissue and background during placement and inspection. Weight of the pack is 0,175 kg. This needle-suture combination from manufacturer B. Braun fits categories covering labware, microscopy, histology instruments, and dedicated needles and suture materials. It is intended for specialised instrument trays where reproducible needle geometry and suture length matter for training, demonstration, or routine preparatory procedures. Dafilon®/DS16 units arrive as discrete combinations so each pack can be allocated cleanly across stations without bulk rethreading. The USP 5/0 sizing and 45 cm length provide a practical balance of manageability and reach for fine work in controlled laboratory settings.
This article belongs on Needles & cannulas, in Syringes & needles.

Questions about Needle-suture combination Dafilon®/DS16, Blue, L 45 cm, USP 5/0, 12 unit(s)
What is this article?
Needle-suture combination Dafilon®/DS16, Blue, L 45 cm, USP 5/0, 12 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 Consommables.
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.
