Aquila makes strings for many instruments. Their unwound treble strings include strings made from nylgut, from gut (of different sorts) and of nylon
that is different from DuPont nylon. But, so far, all their string sets that are designated as being for oud have treble strings made from nylgut.
The lower courses are usually copper wound on a core of nylgut filaments.
