Transcellular liquid

Transcellular fluid is an extracellular fluid that is found in body cavities bounded by an epithelial layer and is created based on the secretory activity of cells (e.g. cerebrospinal fluid, synovial, intraocular, interpleural and pericardial fluids, etc.). It makes up about 1% of total body weight.
