Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

High electric fields (> 2kV/cm) are known to kill microorganisms by causing dielectric breakdown of their cell membrane. This effect can in principle be used in food preservation and waste water treatment. The field strength required to maximize the kill for a given energy is shown here to be higher than the maximum field strength of 25 kV/cm used in the studies reported in the literature. In specially designed proof-of principle experiments electric field strength approaching 100 kV/cm has been successfully applied in /spl tilde/ 1 us pulses to the suspension of Salmonella typhimurium in NaCl solutions and to Pseudomonas fragi in pasteurized milk. A decline in bacterial population exceeding four lagarithmic scales was observed under experimental conditions far from being ideal.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
