Blood plasma
body fluids
ICF
ECF
interstitial fluid
blood plasma
Blood plasma
similar in composition to interstitial
fluid (ECF)
(different than ICF)
but different than ECF in:
dissolved gases (O2, CO2)
(always being used by cells)
dissolved proteins
(don’t cross capillary walls)
Blood plasma
proteins:
7.6 g% (5x ICF)
7.6 grams / 100 ml plasma
large size and globular shape
prevents them from leaving vessels
three classes of proteins:
albumins
globulins
fibrinogen
Blood plasma
proteins:
albumins
60% of plasma proteins
made in liver
transport:
fatty acids
hormones
other stuff
Blood plasma
proteins:
globulins
35% of plasma proteins
two types
immunoglobulins
aka., antibodies (Ab)
transport globulins
hormone-binding
(thyroid H)

(testosterone)
Blood plasma
proteins:
fibrinogen
4% of plasma proteins
blood clotting

“Your total blood volume, in liters, is roughly
equal to 7% of your body weight (in
kilograms). Approximately half the volume
of whole blood consists of cells and cell
products. Plasma resembles interstitial
fluid, but it contains a unique mixture of
proteins not found in other extracellular
fluids.”
Clinical Note
Plasma expanders
used to increase blood volume
(buy time to determine blood type)
isotonic (normal) saline solutions
short-lived
diffuse into interstitial fluid and cells
Ringer’s solution
has lactate (slows diffusion)
Dextran in saline
Clinical Note
Plasma expanders
temporarily replace blood volume
don’t help increase O2 carried
need to give or make new RBC’s

“Red blood cells (RBC’s) are the most
numerous cells in the body. They remain in
circulation for approximately 4 months before
being recycled; several million are produced
each second. The hemoglobin inside RBCs
transports oxygen from the lungs to the
peripheral tissues; it also carries carbon
dioxide from the tissues to the lungs.”

Blood typing
cells
(including RBC’s) have
proteins on their surface
antigens
“foreign” molecules
can trigger immune response
your immune system “ignores” the
molecules on the surface of your cells
because they are “self”
Blood typing
your body makes antibodies (Ab)
(aka., immunoglobulins)
to attack and destroy antigens
There are three (of 50) important “antigens”
used for blood typing
A
B
Rh
Blood typing
if your cells normally have A on surface
(A is “self”)
your immune system will ignore it, but has
antibodies to attack B
(anti-B antibodies)
You have type A blood
Blood typing
if your cells normally have B on surface
(B is “self”)
your immune system will ignore it, but has
antibodies to attack A
(anti-A antibodies)
You have type B blood
Blood typing
if your cells have A & B on surface
(both are “self”)
your immune system will ignore them
You have type AB blood
Blood typing
if your cells have neither on surface
(neither are “self”)
(both are foreign)
your immune system has antibodies to
attack both
You have type O blood

Dominant/recessive
C, D, or E
Rh positive

Rh negative
Blood typing
if your cells have Rh factor on surface
(Rh is “self”)
your immune system will ignore it
You have type Rh+ (positive) blood
Blood typing
if your cells lack Rh factor on surface
(Rh is “foreign”)
your immune system will make antibodies
to attack it
You have type Rh- (negative) blood
