Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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: -Sugars, fatty acids, amino acids, coenzymes, hormones, neurotransmitters, minerals such as sodium, chloride, calcium, magnesium, and potassium, and metabolic waste products are all found in interstitial fluid. Intercellular exchange and blood in the particular tissue determine the composition of interstitial fluid.

Detailed explanation-3: -Interstitial Fluid, henceforth denoted as ISF, is a bodily fluid naturally produced via trans-capillary blood exchange which surrounds cells and tissues. Biologically, ISF exists as a carrier of both nutrients and waste, causing it to hold high concentrations of biomarkers typically found in the blood.
