Abstract
Cryopreservation of Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus (L.) semen was investigated using three diluents, three cryoprotectants [10% dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO), 10% dimethylacetamide (DMA) or 20% glycerol] and three sizes of straw. The three diluents and three cryoprotectants were combined, resulting in nine extenders. One part semen was added to three parts extender, and motility was evaluated to assess the toxicity of six of the extenders. Semen in nine extenders was frozen in 0.5-mL straws using liquid nitrogen vapour. Semen extended in 0.3 m glucose and each of the cryoprotectants was also frozen in 0.5-mL, 1.7-mL (flat) or 2.5-mL straws. The freezing rate in each size of straw was measured. Fertility trials were conducted to determine the post-thaw viability of the frozen semen. The motility of activated spermatozoa was higher in the DMA and DMSO extenders than in the glycerol extender. For the trial using 0.5-mL straws, post-thaw fertility results were higher for all extenders containing DMSO, or 0.3 m glucose and DMA, than for all other combinations of diluent and cryoprotectant. For the straw size comparison, the highest fertility was obtained for the 1.7-mL straw using either DMSO or DMA and for the 2.5-mL straw using DMSO. For all cryopreservation trials, fertility was low for extenders containing glycerol.

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
