Ethicon Bone Wax is a sterile, malleable substance designed to control bleeding from bone surfaces during surgical procedures. Comprised of a blend of beeswax, paraffin, and isopropyl palmitate, this wax-like material offers a unique texture that allows surgeons to easily mould and apply it to bleeding bones. It functions by creating a physical barrier, thereby achieving local hemostasis without the need for medicinal agents.
