Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, a bacterium associated with juvenile periodontitis, was found to use human hemoglobin as a source of iron for cell growth. Cultivation in the presence of hemoglobin had only a slight effect on the cellular protein pattern, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis. Lipopolysaccharides obtained from A. actinomycetemcomitans were found to have a strong capacity to bind hemoglobin. This interaction appears not to involve the lipid A portion of the molecule as no inhibition was obtained when lipopolysaccharides were pre-treated with polymyxin B. This interaction between hemoglobin and lipopolysaccharides of A. actinomycetemcomitans may facilitate iron acquisition by this bacterium.

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.

Not 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.
