| ventricular fluid | The portion of the cerebrospinal fluid that is contained in the ventricles of the brain. (05 Mar 2000) |

| gingival crevicular fluid | A fluid occurring in minute amounts in the gingival crevice, believed by some authorities to be an inflammatory exudate and by others to cleanse material from the crevice, containing sticky plasma proteins which improve adhesions of the epithelial attachment, have antimicrobial properties, and exert antibody activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gingival fluid | Fluid containing plasma proteins, which is present in increasing amounts in association with gingival inflammation. Synonym: crevicular fluid, sulcular fluid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Rees-Ecker fluid | An aqueous solution of sodium citrate, sucrose, and brilliant cresyl blue used in platelet counts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cerebrospinal fluid | <neurology> A clear, colourless fluid that contains small quantities of glucose and protein. Cerebrospinal fluid fills the ventricles of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord. Analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid can be accomplished using lumbar puncture. The presence of white blood cells or bacteria within the cerebrospinal fluid can indicate a bacterial infection (meningitis). Acronym: CSF (12 Jan 1998) |
| cerebrospinal fluid pressure | Manometric pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid as measured by lumbar, cerebroventricular, or cisternal puncture. Within the cranial cavity it is called intracranial pressure. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cerebrospinal fluid proteins | Proteins in the cerebrospinal fluid, normally albumin and globulin present in the ratio of 8 to 1. Increases in protein levels are of diagnostic value in neurological diseases. (brain and bannister's clinical neurology, 7th ed, p221) (12 Dec 1998) |
| cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhoea | A discharge of cerebrospinal fluid from the nose. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cerebrospinal fluid shunts | Tubes inserted to create communication between a cerebral ventricle and the internal jugular vein. Their emplacement permits draining of cerebrospinal fluid for relief of hydrocephalus or other condition leading to fluid accumulation in the ventricles. (12 Dec 1998) |
| waste disposal, fluid | The discarding or destroying of liquid waste products or their transformation into something useful or innocuous. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pleural fluid | <radiology> Normal: 2 cc, allows visceral pleura to slide over parietal pleura, maintains adhesion between pleural layers (12 Dec 1998) |
| crevicular fluid | Fluid containing plasma proteins, which is present in increasing amounts in association with gingival inflammation. Synonym: crevicular fluid, sulcular fluid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prostatic fluid | Succus prostaticus;a whitish secretion that is one of the constituents of the semen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Scarpa's fluid | <anatomy> The watery fluid contained in the membranous labyrinth of the internal ear. Origin: Endo- + lymph: cf. F. Endolymphe. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| pseudoplastic fluid | A fluid which exhibits shear thinning. (05 Mar 2000) |
