In vitro secretion of metabolic end-products by piscine haemoflagellates Cryptobia salmositica and C. bullocki (Kinetoplastida: Bodonidae) and the relationship of these products to the pH in the medium
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains of Cryptobia salmositica Katz, 1951 and C. bullocki Strout, 1965 produced hydrogen peroxide, pyruvate and lactate under in vitro conditions in Minimum Essential Medium (MEM). As parasite number increased, the phenol red in the medium changed from red to yellow. This change was not associated with a decrease in pH, or an increase in pyruvate or lactate, but was correlated with an increased secretion of hydrogen peroxide. Parasites incubated at 10 degrees C in medium at pH 6.0, 6.5, 7.0 and 7.3 were active for about I week with decreasing activity in the absence of serum. Parasites in saline (pH 6.0, 6.5, 7.0 and 7.3) were nonmotile within 24 h and were dead in about 1 week. This suggests that these Cryptobia spp. are sensitive to changes in pH and require medium which is buffered, either with serum or Hepes.

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.
