Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Twenty-five samples of retail corn flakes (from 15 lots) were analysed for fumonisin B(1) (FB(1)) and fumonisin B(2) (FB(2)). They were detected in 22 and 12 samples, respectively, at respective mean concentrations 68 and 8 ng g(-1). Samples were extracted with methanol-acetonitrile-water (25:25:50) and there was an excellent correlation for FB(1) between results obtained with C(18) clean-up and those obtained with the immunoaffinity column (IAC) clean-up. After extraction of the corn flakes' residue with 1% sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) solution and hydrolysis with 2 N potassium hydroxide, hidden (protein bound) fumonisin was determined as HFB(1), which was found in residues from all the corn flakes samples, even those containing no detectable FB(1); the average concentration of HFB(1) was 101 ng g(-1), equivalent to 180 ng FB(1) g(-1). Thus, our results showed an average of 2.6 times more FB(1) present in bound form as was determined by conventional analysis. We found a correlation coefficient of -0.5034 for a logarithmic relationship between the FB(1) (C(18) clean-up) and HFB(1) concentrations The highest concentration of HFB(1) formed was 288 ng g(-1) from a sample containing only 12-15 ng FB(1) g(-1), while the lowest concentration of HFB(1) was 26 ng g(-1) from a sample with 152-155 ng FB(1) g(-1). This low degree of correlation should be taken into account by food safety authorities in estimates of human exposure to protein bound fumonisin.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
