Detailed explanation-1: -Although plasma albumin and serum globulins constitute the majority of the lymph proteins, tissue-specific proteins are also highly represented in the lymph proteome when compared to the plasma proteome.

Detailed explanation-2: -Taken together, lymph drained from normal human leg tissues contains an array of regulatory proteins originating from plasma but also produced locally by parenchymal, endothelial, and migrating immune cells. The concentration of most of these proteins is higher than in serum.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lymph fluid. This is a colourless fluid that is made in the body. It surrounds all body tissues. Extra fluid from tissue in the body drains into and flows through small lymph vessels. This fluid is filtered through the lymph nodes, and drains back into the bloodstream.
