The yellow-colored liquid component of blood, in which blood cells are suspended.<\/p>\n
The clear, yellowish, fluid part of the blood that carries the blood cells. The proteins that form blood clots are in plasma.<\/p>\n
A pale, amber-colored fluid constituting the fluid portion of the blood in which are suspended the cellular elements. Plasma contains 8-9 percent solids. Of these, 85 percent are proteins consisting of three major groups, which are: fibrinogen, albumin, and globulin. The other components are the lipids, which include the neutral fats, fatty acids, lecithin, and cholesterol. Also present are sodium, chloride and bicarbonate, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. A most essential function of plasma is the maintenance of blood pressure and the exchange (with tissues) of nutrients for waste.<\/p>\n
The pale yellow liquid portion of the blood consisting of more than 100 constituents including proteins, inorganic salts, gases, waste products, enzymes, and hormones.<\/p>\n
A yellow watery liquid which makes up the main part of blood.<\/p>\n
Lymph with no corpuscles.<\/p>\n
Fluid part of the blood in which the red and white blood cells and platelets flow.<\/p>\n
The fluids surrounding the red blood cells.<\/p>\n
Fluid that makes up much of the volume of blood, which carries the various blood cells.<\/p>\n
Acellular, straw-colored, fluid part of blood and lymph that contains water, electrolytes, glucose, fats, and proteins, and in which erythrocytes, leukocytes, and platelets are suspended. In addition to carrying the cellular elements, plasma helps maintain the fluid-electrolyte and the acid-base balances of the body and helps transport wastes.<\/p>\n
The fluid portion of blood, including fibrinogen, as distinguished from serum, from which fibrinogen has been separated.<\/p>\n
The liquid portion of the blood. A straw-colored fluid, plasma represents a little over half of the body’s total volume of blood. Mostly water, plasma serves as the medium that transports the blood cells. It also contains proteins, hormones, acids, salts, nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and cellular waste products.<\/p>\n
The straw-colored fluid in which the blood cells are suspended. It consists of a solution of various inorganic salts of sodium, potassium, calcium, etc., with a high concentration of protein (approximately 70 g\/1) and a variety of trace substances.<\/p>\n
The name applied to the straw-coloured fluid portion of the blood composed of a solution of various inorganic salts of sodium, potassium, calcium, etc., as well as serum and fibrinogen, the material which produces clotting. When the plasma is clotted, the thinner fluid separating from the clot is the serum.<\/p>\n
A translucent, yellow- or straw-colored substance that constitutes the fluid component of both blood and lymphatic fluid is referred to as serum.<\/p>\n
The liquid component of blood that remains once the blood cells are separated. Plasma constitutes a solution containing numerous nutrients, salts, and proteins.<\/p>\n
