| supernatant fluid | Clear fluid that, after the settling out of an insoluble liquid or solid by the action of normal gravity or of centrifugal force, takes up the upper portion of the contents of a vessel. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dentinal fluid | The lymph or fluid of dentin. It is a transudate of extracellular fluid, mainly cytoplasm of odontoblastic processes, from the dental pulp via the dentinal tubules. It is also called dental lymph. (12 Dec 1998) |
| synovial fluid | <anatomy> Joint fluid, a viscous fluid which lubricates the joint. (27 Sep 1997) |
| infranatant fluid | Clear fluid that, after the settling out of an insoluble liquid or solid by the action of normal gravity or of centrifugal force, takes up the lower portion of the contents of a vessel. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial fluid | The fluid in spaces between the tissue cells, constituting about 16% of the weight of the body; closely similar in composition to lymph. Synonym: tissue fluid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intracellular fluid | The fluid within the tissue cells, constituting about 30 to 40% of the body weight. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intraocular fluid | <physiology> A transparent liquid contained in the anterior and posterior chambers of the eye, produced by the ciliary process it passes to the venous system via the canal of Schlemm. (27 Sep 1997) |
| intravenous fluid | The administration of a balanced electrolyte solution into the venous circulation. (27 Sep 1997) |
| iv fluid | The administration of a balanced electrolyte (salt) solution into the venous circulation. (27 Sep 1997) |
| thixotropic fluid | A liquid that tends to turn into a gel when left standing, but which turns back into a liquid if agitated, as by vibrations or subjection to adequate shear. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tissue fluid | The fluid in spaces between the tissue cells, constituting about 16% of the weight of the body; closely similar in composition to lymph. Synonym: tissue fluid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| embolism, amniotic fluid | Embolism caused by strong uterine contractions near the end of a normal pregnancy that force amniotic fluid into the maternal circulation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| extracellular fluid | The fluid found outside of the cell or cells and between the cells in a tissue. (09 Oct 1997) |
| extracellular fluid volume | The fraction of body wate rnot in cells; about 25% of body weight. It consists of plasma water (4.5% of body weight), water between cells (interstitial water-lymph, 11.5% of body weight), water in dense bone and connective tissue (7.5% of body weight) and water secretions.See transcellular water, about 1.5% of body weight..
