 Plasma is made up of approximately 92 % water. Proteins, enzymes, glucose, amino acids, minerals, urea, vitamins, uric acid, antibodies, salts and hormones make up the remaining 8% .

Whole blood is composed of 55% plasma.  Plasma in blood acts as a solvent for gases, electrolytes, nutrients and important proteins vital to life.
