Abstract
This study reports an attempt to confirm a published and well-defined biological effect of magnetic fields. The biological model investigated was the phosphorylation of myosin light chain in a cell free system. The rate of phosphorylation has been reported to be affected in an approximately linear manner by static magnetic field strengths in the range 0-200 microT. We performed three series of experiments, two to test the general hypothesis and a third that was a direct replication of published work. We found no effect of static magnetic field strength on the rate of phosphorylation. Hence, we were unable to confirm that weak static magnetic fields affect the binding of calcium to calmodulin. In view of the difficulty we and other authors have had making independent verifications of claimed biological effects of magnetic fields, we would urge caution in the interpretation of published data until they have been independently confirmed. There are still few well defined biological effects of low level magnetic fields that have been successfully transferred to an independent laboratory.

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
