This term is obsolete.
Note that for multicellular organisms, the extracellular space refers to everything outside a cell, but still within the organism (excluding the extracellular matrix). Gene products from a multi-cellular organism that are secreted from a cell into the interstitial fluid or blood can therefore be annotated to this term.

extracellular space

Cellular Component

Definition (GO:0005615 GONUTS page)

That part of a multicellular organism outside the cells proper, usually taken to be outside the plasma membranes, and occupied by fluid.
