Normal human synovial fluid: osmolality and exercise-induced changes

M Baumgarten et al. J Bone Joint Surg Am. 1985 Dec.

Abstract

We measured the osmolality of human synovial fluid in the knees of healthy young adults following minimum activity and exercise. These results were compared with each subject's blood-serum osmolality. The synovial fluid was hyperosmolal with minimum activity, decreasing to blood-serum levels after exercise.
