" A " transudate " is a liquid having a composition resembling that of blood-serum, while the term " exudate " is applied to an effused liquid whose composition approaches that of the blood-plasma in the relationship of its solid and liquid parts, ...
Tests: A throat swab of the exudate will be cultured to determine whether the pharyngitis is bacterial and to identify the specific causative bacteria, as well as the antibiotic sensitivity.
Fluid chemistries help distinguish transudates from exudates; multiple criteria exist, not one of which perfectly discriminates between the two.
Yellowishwhite exudate (pus)
Pain, particularly while standing
Varicose veins in the leg.

Generally, veins carry deoxygenated blood from the body to the heart, where it can be sent to the lungs.

In a sore throat with typical exudates very suggestive of streptococcal pharyngitis, a throat culture may be all one needs before starting definitive antibiotic therapy.
Signs of diphtheria include severe inflammation that can cause the formation of a membrane-like coating that forms a thick, elastic, protein-filled exudate.
There are two types of fluid that can result in pleural effusion: transudate and exudate fluids. A transudate fluid is a clear fluid that forms when the factors that influence the formation and absorption of the pleural fluid is altered.
Bacterial contamination of tissue exudate; pus.
Sociopath (APD)
Sociopath also known as Antisocial personality disorder (APD) involves a history of chronic antisocial behavior that begins before the age of 15 and continues into adulthood.
In general, pleural fluid is classified as exudate (seen in inflammatory, cancerous, or infectious conditions) or transudate (fluid that has leaked from blood or lymph vessels for various reasons, such as congestive heart failure).
Tests used for this condition typically include cultures of exudate to identify the pathogen, typically S. aureus and, occasionally, beta-hemolytic streptococcus in acute dacryocystitis and S. pneumoniae or C. albicans in chronic disease.
Small leaks of fluid from damaged blood vessels (exudates).
Small bleeds from damaged blood vessels (haemorrhages).
Blood vessels may just become blocked. This can cut off the blood and oxygen supply to small sections of the retina.
After a transmural infarction, a fibrinous pericardial exudate appears within 24 hours, begins to organize at 4-8 days, and completes organization at 4 weeks.
This can lead to bleeding (hemorrhage) and fluids, cells, and proteins leaking into the area (exudates).
There can be a lack of oxygen to surrounding tissues (hypoxia) or decreased blood flow (ischemia).
In maculopathy, the haemorrhages, exudates and swellings of the non-proliferative stage occur in the macula. This may interfere with vision, particularly for reading and seeing fine details.
Proliferative retinopathy ...
Exudates occur when the pleura becomes inflamed and fluid is unable to pass through the membranes.
The fluid that follows the blood and the healing process causes a hardening, which your doctor can see on exam (called "yellow exudates"). This is a sign of the beginning of eye disease.

In this stage there may be hemorrhages (bleeding) in the retina with leakage of blood causing a "wet retina" or protein deposits (exudates) in the retina. As a consequence, the retina does not receive enough oxygen.
Grade-III: Flame-shaped or circular hemorrhages and cotton wool exudates.
Grade-IV: Any of the above plus edema of the disc.

If excess fluid is present, ultrasound may be useful to determine the type of fluid, exudate (seen in inflammatory, cancerous, or infectious conditions) or transudate (fluid that has leaked from blood or lymph vessels for various reasons).
The doctor may look at the ear canal with a lighted scope called an otoscope. With this, the ear canal can be seen to be swollen, red, and sometimes coated with a whitish material called an exudate.
