Thermal Degradation of Partially Purified Paralytic Shellfish Poison Toxins at Different Times, Temperatures, and pH
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT: Mixtures of purified and partially purified paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) toxins including C1/2 and B1 toxins, gonyautoxins 1‐4 (GTX), neosaxitoxin (NEO), and saxitoxin (STX) were heated at different temperatures (90 to 130 °C), heating times (10 to 120 min), and pH (3 to 7) and analyzed by HPLC. C toxins declined rapidly at low pH, and GTX 1/4 toxins decreased at high temperatures and at high pH. GTX 2/3 increased initially at low pH and then declined with subsequent heating, whereas STX increased consistently at pH 3 to 4. The integrated total specific toxicity declined at high pH (6 to 7). The kinetics of thermal destruction were 1 st order, and the efficacy of thermal destruction was highly dependent on pH, with rapid thermal destruction of carbamate compounds at higher pH. D values of carbamate toxins decreased with increasing temperature at high pH. Heating at low pH resulted in conversion of least toxic compounds to highly toxic compounds.

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.
