Effect of experimental contamination with the explosive hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine on soil bacterial communities
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The effect of contamination with the explosive hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) on an indigenous soil bacterial community was examined in two uncontaminated loam soil columns possessing native grasses. One column was spiked twice with RDX crystals for a total RDX load of 1000 mg (kg soil)(-1). The reduced metabolite of RDX degradation, hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine, was observed in the column leachate, suggesting anaerobic degradation of RDX. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of PCR-amplified 16S rDNA from both contaminated and uncontaminated columns produced identical banding patterns which were stable over the course of the experimental period. The bacterial diversity remained high in the contaminated column, as determined by restriction fragment length polymorphism and rarefaction analyses of random 16S rDNA clones. These combined results suggested that long-term exposure to 1000 mg RDX (kg soil)(-1) did not produce an observable effect on bacterial diversity or the numerically dominant members of the indigenous soil bacterial community.

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.
