How can my Chrome extension catch DOM object loaded after page load?

My extension finds and replaces text (by crawling the DOM looking for text nodes) using a JavaScript file loaded by "content_script". It works fine for text that is loaded with the page, but some sites load more content at arbitrary times after the page has loaded.

For example, an article loads comments via JavaScript only when the user scrolls to the bottom of the page.

Is there a way for my extension to pick up on those DOM changes and run on the text added that way?
