Biological fluids

Biological fluids

Biological fluids are all the liquids in the body that help transport nutrients and remove waste from cells. Common examples include blood, saliva, semen, vaginal fluids, mucus, and urine, although many other biological fluids exist.

Main Types of Biological Fluids

There are three primary categories of biological fluids: intravascular, interstitial, and intracellular. Extracellular fluid refers to the fluids located outside cells, which include intravascular fluid (blood plasma), interstitial fluid, lymph, and transcellular fluid. Interstitial fluid, filling the spaces between cells, is the most abundant, whereas transcellular fluid, located in the chambers formed by epithelial linings, is the least abundant. Intracellular fluid is the fluid contained within the cells themselves.
