Abstract
It has been suggested that residual cytotoxic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is responsible for the low levels of cell in-growth observed in SDS decellularized tissues. To determine whether this is the case, we used 2 washing methods to remove residual SDS and extensive biochemical, mechanical, and structural analyses to determine the effects of SDS-based decellularization on porcine anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tissue and its propensity for cellular repopulation. The level of residual SDS in decellularized tissue was reduced using 2 different washing techniques (pH = 9 buffer, 75% ethanol). After washing in pH = 9 or 75% ethanol, residual SDS concentrations in decellularized tissues were found to be approximately 8 and 23 times less than reported SDS cytotoxic levels, respectively. It was found that SDS treatment significantly reduced glycosaminoglycan levels, increased collagen crimp amplitude and periodicity, and increased susceptibility of collagen to degradation by the gelatinase enzyme trypsin. The level of repopulation and viability of autologous ACL fibroblasts in the decellularized tissue after 28 days of culture were found to be the same regardless of the washing technique and resulting level of residual SDS in the tissue. This strongly indicates that alterations in tissue matrix biochemistry or structure from SDS treatment and not residual SDS cytotoxicity are responsible for the low cell re-population observed in SDS decellularized tissues.

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
