Chemical modifications caused on (A) PGLA, (B) PGA, (C) PDO and (D) PGCL sutures by 7-minute NTAP treatment was evaluated by using FTIR. FTIR spectra revealed that, 7-minute NTAP treatment, caused a decrease in relative absorption intensity of C-C groups and increase in relative absorption intensity of C–O and C = O groups suggesting increasing hydrophilicity.</p
