This is from a patent application for plant extracts.
" ..... si intende una pianta erbacea perenne della zona mediterranea, appartenente al genere XXXXX ed alla famiglia delle YYYYY , caratterizzata da un lattice giallo-arancio che si ossida e scurisce rapidamente all’aria, il quale lattice fuoriesce dai rami una volta spezzati."
Latex, or perhaps sap is good enough?

a milky substance
I associate latex to a substance that is the result of an industrial process.
In this context, 'sostanza lattiginosa' seems to be a better fit than 'lattice' oozing from a plant.
Well, just another take. Hope it helps.
