Effect of Free‐SH Containing Compounds on Allyl Isothiocyanate Antimicrobial Activity against <i>Escherichia coli</i> O157:H7
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 contamination is a significant meat safety issue in many countries. Allyl isothiocyanate (AIT) is a natural compound found to limit the survival of E. coli O157:H7 and other pathogens in meat and meat products. In the present study, it was found that glutathione and cysteine naturally present in meat can interfere with AIT antimicrobial activity. Spectroscopy, HPLC, and LC-MS were used to confirm that glutathione was able to react with AIT and formed a conjugate with no or low bactericidal activity against the tested organisms. The same reaction also occurred at pH values of 4.9 and 5.8 at 25 and 4 degrees C, respectively, which broadly represent storage conditions in raw beef (pH 5.8) and during fermented sausage (pH 4.9) manufacture. Reactions observed help to explain reduction in antimicrobial potency of AIT in food (meat) systems.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
