An Autumn-Enhanced Mucotropic Action of Inhaled Terpenes and Related Volatile Agents
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ten of eleven terpenes and related perfumes and flavouring agents given by inhalation augmented the volume output of respiratory tract fluid in urethanized rabbits at amounts which produced no or a barely detectable scent to the inhaled air. The mucotropic action tended to be less or to disappear at larger amounts which imparted a strong odour to the inhaled air and to be more evident in the autumn months of the year. In most instances, an increase in volume was accompanied by a decrease in the specific gravity of respiratory tract fluid. The bronchomucotropic action tended to be most evident following inhalation of camphanes such as fenchone, para-substituted phenols such as isosafrole, and open-ring terpenes such as citronellal. It was less evident or absent following inhalation of several derivatives of p-menthane such as dolcymene. The other volatile agents studied included anethole, carvone, cineole, ionone, linalyl acetate, phellandren, and Terpineol.

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.
