INTERSTITIAL FLUID - Interstitial fluid (or tissue fluid, or intercellular fluid) is a solution which bathes and surrounds the cells of multicellular animals. - To prevent a build-up of tissue fluid surrounding the cells in the tissue, the lymphatic system plays a part in the transport of tissue fluid. - Tissue fluid can pass into the surrounding lymph vessels (now called Lymph), and eventually ends up rejoining the blood.
