Chyme

When food is introduced into the stomach, the peristaltic contractions of that organ roll it about, and mingle it with the gastric juice, which disintegrates the connective tissue, and converts the albuminous portions into the substance called chyme, which is about the consistency of pea-soup, and which is readily absorbed through the animal membranes into the blood of the delicate and numerous vessels of the stomach, whence it is conveyed to the portal vein and to the liver. ❋ Ray Vaughn Pierce (1877)

Food leaving the small intestine is called chyme, a semi-liquid mixture of fiber, undigested bits, indigestible bits, and the remains of digestive enzymes. ❋ Isabel Moser (N/A)

After a variable time, from one to four hours, the contents of the stomach, which are now called chyme, begin to move on in successive portions into the next part of the intestinal canal. ❋ Albert F. Blaisdell (N/A)

The food at this stage is called chyme; it is an acid and soup-like fluid -- acid through the influence of the gastric juice. ❋ Unknown (1906)

I mean, they've done such a number on it that it's no longer food - it's called chyme, a partially digested semifluid mass that probably smells like what would come out of a dog if you fed it raw pork, bleach, and hot sauce. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Once as much of the good stuff has been leeched out of the chyme as your system can do, the soup is passed on to the large intestine salmon colored in my cartoon. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Then it's squirted into the small intestine colored orange, where the acids are first neutralized and more enzymes are tossed onto the watery, mushy soup that the food has been rendered down into, called chyme. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The primary job of the small intestine is to suck all the nutrients out of the chyme and pass them on to the circulatory system. ❋ Unknown (2009)

They are the muscles that are involved in the peristaltic action that moves the chyme through the intestinal tract by contracting and creating wave like motions. ❋ Unknown (2008)

But they never make it better: it just discharges a whole load of putrid chyme, swells some more and hurts until it gets scratched again. ❋ Dan Vevers (2008)

Are you fetishistically fond of posting puerile, unreadable, horribly punctuated, grammatically insane or otherwise indecipherable mental chyme all over the Web's now-ubiquitous comments boards, filling the public areas from here to Metafilter with OMG! ❋ West End Bob (2008)

And we all know that a good cup of hot chocolate can comfort even the most miserable sick human provided that the stomach remains stable and thank god this has not been a vomiting sickness or else I would never hear the end of Ian's discussions that throw up shouldn't really be called vomit but chyme. ❋ Kate (2006)

So in the mesenteric veins of an animal we do not find either chyme or chyle and blood, blended together or distinct, but only blood, the same in colour, consistency, and other sensible properties, as it appears in the veins generally. ❋ Unknown (2005)

Here the chyme is acted upon by the _bile_, and the ❋ Joel Dorman Steele (N/A)

Eating food lacking fiber greatly reduces the volume of the chyme and slows peristalsis. ❋ Isabel Moser (N/A)
