When capillaries flow through tissues everyone knows they give off nutrients and oxygen into the Interstitium (the space between cells) from which the cells pick them up. In the interstitium is a fluid called Interstitial Fluid which is very similar to blood plasma. As the blood flows though the capillaries much of the plasma travels through the vessel wall and into the interstitium (due to complicated laws of physics). Only a fraction of this fluid returns to the blood and the rest remains in the interstitium, increasing the pressure in the tissues and drastically decreasing the blood pressure. This is where the lymph vessels come in. They pick up this eccess fluid and transport it back, eternally, to the Vena Cava so it rejoins the blood supply. Therefore lymph, the fluid in lymph vessels, is basically a fluid of roughly the same composition as blood plasma.
Lymph nodes are famous for their role in the Immune System. Structures called Lymph Nodes which produce cells called Lyphocytes. These have many and various function in the immune system. They get into the blood by following the flow of lymph into the vena cava and join the blood supply here.
or for a very simple answer lymph=tissue fluid

yes
Most fluid and proteins that escape from blood vessels to the interstitial fluid are normally?
thru the lymphs.

What is definition of lymphs on blood test?
Lymphs, or lymphocytes, are a type of white blood cell that plays a crucial role in the immune system by recognizing and attacking foreign invaders such as bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. The lymphocyte count in a blood test provides information about the body's immune response and can help diagnose conditions such as infections, autoimmune diseases, and certain types of cancer.
What does the abbreviation lymphs mean in laboratory test results?
In laboratory test results, the abbreviation "lymphs" typically refers to lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell involved in the immune response. Elevated or decreased levels of lymphocytes can indicate different medical conditions such as infections, autoimmune diseases, or certain types of cancer.
