Detailed explanation-1: -(IN-ter-STIH-shul FLOO-id) Fluid found in the spaces around cells. It comes from substances that leak out of blood capillaries (the smallest type of blood vessel). It helps bring oxygen and nutrients to cells and to remove waste products from them.
Detailed explanation-2: -Interstitial fluid is called as tissue fluid.
Detailed explanation-3: -Interstitial fluid is a watery fluid that bathes the cells, exchange of material between blood and tissue. Exchanged material from blood to tissue is oxygen, amino acids, fatty acids and salts and from tissue to blood is carbon dioxide and waste. That’s why it is also called tissue fluid.
Detailed explanation-4: -Interstitial fluid is a biological fluid present between the cells and tissues, comprising a similar composition to that of the plasma [79].
Detailed explanation-5: -The Interstitium. The interstitial space that lies between blood vessels and cells provides the fluid and structural environment surrounding those cells. Under most conditions in most tissues, fluid from the vascular space continually filters from the microvessels into the interstitial space and is not reabsorbed (1).
