Sir William Macewan's teacher, Joseph Lister, came up with chromic suture, but it could not be well sterilized. But Macewen came up with a chromic catgut suture, which could be sterilized, and he himself prepared this before any operation. He wouldn’t let anyone else do it.
Shown here is a tube of sterile chromic catgut sutures.
