'''Pseudocyle''' is a type of fluid which has the same milky appearance as chyle but is actually composed of cellular debris, cholesterol micelles and lecithin globulin complexes.  Pseudochyle may represent an inflammatory or neoplastic process and, although rare in animals, it may be associated with ''Mycobacterium'' infection.  True chyle may be identified in the following ways:

'''Pseudochyle''' is a type of fluid which has the same milky appearance as chyle but is actually composed of cellular debris, cholesterol micelles and lecithin globulin complexes.  Pseudochyle may represent an inflammatory or neoplastic process and, although rare in animals, it may be associated with [[:Category:Mycobacteria species|''Mycobacterium'']] infection.  True chyle may be identified in the following ways:

*Chyle has a higher triglyceride concentration than plasma but a lower cholesterol concentration and it has a triglyceride: cholesterol ratio (C:T) of <1.  Pseudochyle has a higher cholesterol concentration than plasma but a lower triglyceride concentration.

*Chyle has a higher triglyceride concentration than plasma but a lower cholesterol concentration and it has a triglyceride: cholesterol ratio (C:T) of <1.  Pseudochyle has a higher cholesterol concentration than plasma but a lower triglyceride concentration.

*When chyle is left to stand overnight, an upper 'cream' layer will become evident due to the presence of chylomicrons in the fluid, whereas pseudochyle will remain homogenous.
