Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) transgenic (KMD1) and non‐transgenic (KMD1′s parental variety Xiushui 11) rice flours were assessed in a 90 day feeding test with rats. KMD1 contained a synthetic cry1Ab gene from Bt, and selection marker genes nptII and hpt linked in tandem. In the≤64 g kg−1 body weight (BW) dosage range (Bt transgenic rice flour composed 64% of the ingredients of the diet), no adverse effects of Bt rice on rats were observed in terms of animal behaviour, weight gain and feed utilisation rate. Necropsy at the end of the experiment indicated that neither pathological lesions nor histopathological abnormalities were present in organs such as liver, kidneys, intestines and testes of rats in both test and control groups by macroscopic and microscopic pathology. In addition, no significant differences (P > 0.05) were observed in relative organ weights, haemograms and blood indices of rats between test and control groups. Several serum parameters of female rats were found to be significantly different between Bt and non‐Bt diets, but the values of these parameters were still within the normal ranges of values for rats of this age and sex. These results demonstrated that Bt rice flour at a dosage of 64 g kg−1 BW, Bt toxin and NPTII and HPT proteins have no toxic effects on rats. © 2002 Society of Chemical Industry

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
