Abstract
Summary Protein hydrolysates were prepared from echinoderm byproducts, including viscera (SCV) of Atlantic sea cucumber ( Cucumaria frondosa ) and digestive tract (UDT) and non‐commercial grade gonads (UGN) of green sea urchin ( Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis ). Enzymatic hydrolysis was performed on defatted materials using Alcalase ® 2.4L (0.75% w/w) and reaction was carried out overnight (∼16 h, 55 °C, pH 8.0). Freeze‐dried hydrolysates were analysed for their nutritional composition, nitrogen solubility index and antioxidant activity. Degree of hydrolysis was low, with values of 5.6%, 4.6% and 7.0% for SCV, UDT and UGN, respectively. Hydrolysates showed high protein content (∼55%), high proportion of essential amino acids (∼35% of total amino acids) and good solubility (nitrogen solubility index ≈ 68%). They contained variable concentrations of major and trace elements with a predominance of Na and K. Hydrolysates showed apparent antioxidant activities in both ORAC assay (267–421 μmol TE g −1 ) and inhibition of lipid oxidation test (54–57%). Antioxidant activities were thought to be associated with the presence of antioxidant peptides in hydrolysates. Our results showed that hydrolysates from Atlantic sea cucumber and green sea urchin byproducts might serve as alternative sources of dietary proteins, with good nutritional composition, high solubility and interesting protection against oxidative stress.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
