Surface compounds extruded by food and feed plants affect mitoses
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Surface compounds from Ruta graveolens, Brassica oleracea, Medicago sativa, Uncaria tomentosa, and a mixture of surface compounds from Taxus wallichiana with coumarin inhibited mitoses. They thus could act as antimicrobial or even anticancer agents used in food and feed. The compounds removed from the interior of the same plants either stimulate mitoses, as in B. oleracea and M. sativa or inhibit mitoses, although much less than do surface deposits. The sampled leaves or twigs were treated fi rst for 1-2 seconds by dipping them into almost-boiling water (Zobel and Brown, 1988) to remove melted waxes and natural products deposited in and on the wax. A standard method was then used to remove fl avonoids and other phenolics from the rest of the tissue, with prolongation of the extraction to overnight. In Ruta, Brassica and Medicago, coumarins were found in the highest concentrations. In Uncaria alkaloids and tannins were found. In Taxus taxoids were found, but because these are mutagenic the coumarin was added to avoid the mutagenic effect; thus even at 10-15 ppm of taxoids 50 ppm of coumarin inhibited mitosis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
