BIO-foam

(Biomedical foam), is a standard form of medical first aid in the 28th century. It saw a resurgence in the 31st century.
== Overview ==
 is generally contained within a cylindrical canister or bottle with a deployable nozzle used to apply the mixture directly to the affected area of a patient, although it can also be rubbed into a wound rather than injected. When applied and exposed to air, the nitrous oxide and liquid polyethyltriphosphate mix, they produce a foaming reaction. The foam strongly adheres to tissues and simultaneously releases encapsulated medical compounds that advances clotting, disinfects the wound, and eventually numbs pain. After a short duration of time, the foam applied will set and become a semi-rigid, porous mass internally, which forms a hardened skin on regions of the body exposed to air. The standard dosage is 10 centilitres (10cL) or 3.38 fl. oz.
Despite biofoam's numbing properties, for the first few seconds after its application to an open wound, it is known to be very painful, described as feeling like "burning ants crawling around the wound" and "thousands of tiny knives" stabbing the recipient.
== Trivia ==
=== General ===
* is a favoured medical first aid for NXSC soldiers and marines on the field. Since it is far more advanced than traditional first aid, it was 86% more effective than the traditional norm, that saved the lives of many personnel in the battlefield across the stars, and even inside the planet.
*BIO-foam notably was in short supply throughout the Nevian-Colossian War. This was due to the Army and Marines suffering great casualties.
*This medicine costs as high as a regular car.
*BIO-foam was banned for OSNI as they were abusing its capabilities.
