Abstract
We describe the synthesis and characterization of metal-chelating polymers with a degree of polymerization of 67 and 79, high diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) functionality, M(w)/M(n) ≤ 1.17, and a maleimide as an orthogonal functional group for conjugation to antibodies. The polymeric disulfide form of the DP(n) = 79 DTPA polymer was analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis to determine moisture and sodium-ion content and by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) to determine the Gd(3+) binding capacity. These results showed each chain binds 68 ± 7 Gd(3+) per chain. Secondary goat antimouse IgG was covalently labeled with the maleimide form of the DTPA polymer (DP(n) = 79) carrying (159)Tb. Conventional ICPMS analysis of this conjugate showed each antibody carried an average of 161 ± 4 (159)Tb atoms. This result was combined with the ITC result to show there are an average of 2.4 ± 0.3 polymer chains attached to each antibody. Eleven monoclonal primary antibodies were labeled with different lanthanide isotopes using the same labeling methodology. Single cell analysis of whole umbilical cord blood stained with a mixture of 11 metal-tagged antibodies was performed by mass cytometry.

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
