Liquid latex (also known as red liquid latex, latex milk, or rubber latex) is a flexible coating material used in medical simulation to represent blood vessels and vascular tissue layers. When applied in thin coats and allowed to dry, it forms a flexible membrane that can simulate the feel of vessel walls during dissection practice.
