Definition
-
A clear-to-yellowish fluid that circulates throughout the body. In addition to its fluid component, lymph consists of white blood cells (especially lymphocytes) and a small concentration of red blood cells and proteins. As lymph circulates, it picks up unwanted materials, such as bacteria and dead cells, which are then filtered through the lymph nodes. Lymph also supplies mature lymphocytes to the blood.

Líquido cuyo color varía entre transparente y amarillento que circula por todo el cuerpo. Además de su elemento líquido, la linfa está constituida por glóbulos blancos (particularmente linfocitos) y una pequeña concentración de glóbulos rojos y proteínas. A medida que circula, la linfa recoge los materiales indeseables, como bacterias y células muertas, que luego se filtran a través de los ganglios linfáticos. También suministra linfocitos maduros a la sangre
