Blood "plasma" is the liquid outside of cells. In it are various dissolved substances. There are inorganic salts, also called "electrolytes" which are present in the form of dissolved ions.
There are also plasma proteins. Some plasma proteins transport lipids, which are insoluble in water. The only way the lipids can travel in the blood is if they are bound to proteins.
Immunoglobulins, another protein, are also found in the blood plasma. They are antibodies that help fight viruses that invade the body.
There are also blood clotting factors in the blood plasma.
Other substances in the blood plasma are nutrients, metabolic waste products, respiratory gases, and hormones.
