Transude
Definition:
(v. i.) To pass, as perspirable matter does, through the pores or interstices of textures; as, liquor may transude through leather or wood.
Example Sentences:

(4) These effusions were borderline between exudates and transudates and showed little evidence of inflammation.
(5) Two mechanisms were proposed to explain these abnormalities: transudation of serum FFAs into the pancreatic duct and local production of arachidonic acid as a result of the damage to pancreatic cell membranes.
(6) Myxedema should be considered in the differential diagnosis of an unexplained pleural effusion no matter whether it is a transudate or an exudate.
