Science - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / Anaesthetics | | German term or phrase: Abtransport | "Da die Lokalanästhetika nicht am Wirkort abgebaut werden, ist ausschließlich die Abdiffusion und der Abtransport auf dem Blutwege für die Beendigung der lokalen Wirkung verantwortlich (EVERS u. HAEGERSTAM, 1983 ) ."
From a text about anaesthetics. I can't make head or tail or "Abtransport" (or "Abdiffusion", for that matter), and the dictionaries do nothing to enlighten me. TIA for your help.

| Note from asker to answererAh, now I see how it works. Actually, I could probably understand the words in isolation, but I couldn't figure out their meaning in the sentence (the phrase "auf dem Blutweg" confused me a bit). You've helped clarify it. Thanks very much - appreciate your help.
