Protein concentration in lymph.
A brief review is given on the problem of protein concentration in lymph versus protein concentration in interstitial fluid. The possibility of a concentrating ability of the lymphatics is discussed in the light of recent investigations. It is concluded that the final answer to the problem is not known, but that substantial evidence indicate that the protein concentration in lymph and in the interstitial fluid from which the lymph originate is similar.
