Suture with least adhesion to tissues and high plasticity is:

A
Nylon
B
Prolene
C
Polyglycolate
D
PDS
High-Yield Explanation
Polypropylene (prolene) is an extremely inert suture with a (low) tissue reactivity and good tensile strength comparable to nylon. It has a very slippery surface with low adherence to tissues. Its extreme smoothness does compromise knot security and extra knots are required to prevent loosening of the suture.
