Abstract
The lack of published data on effective disinfectants and contact times for use on the fungal pathogens Coccidioides immitis and C. posadasii prompted the authors to investigate the fungicidal activity of three commonly used laboratory disinfectants on arthroconidia harvested from C. immitis strain 2009. They tested the ability of 10% bleach, 70% ethanol, and Vesphene® IIse to inactivate 107 arthroconidia in an aqueous suspension within 1, 2, 5, 10, or 20 minutes of contact time. Both 10% bleach and 70% ethanol provided a 7-log10 reduction in arthroconidia in less than 1 minute, with no growth observed at any of the tested time points. Vesphene® IIse was less effective, providing a 6-log10 reduction in arthroconidia after 5 minutes, but was unable to completely inactivate all of the arthroconidia, even after 20 minutes of contact time.

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
