Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The flocculation behavior of two Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains expressing either Flo1 or NewFlo phenotype was examined. The behavior of the two strains was examined while varying ethanol (0–l0.0 ml/100 ml), pH (3.8–5.8), ionic strength (0.01–0.20M), and temperature (5–25°C). The flocculation behavior of Flo1 cells was insensitive to ethanol and pH changes. NewFlo cells exhibited significantly increased flocculation with increases in ethanol concentration (P < 0.05) and pH value (P < 0.01). Increasing ionic strength and decreasing temperature significantly (P < 0.01) retarded flocculation in both strains. The apparent activation energy of flocculation at pH 4.0 and 1 × 108 cells per milliliter was estimated to be 3.2 and 11.0 kcal/mol for Flo1 and NewFlo strains, respectively, indicating distinct sensitivities to temperature. Interestingly, flocculation inhibition by urea was reversed by washing with 100 mM acetate buffer (20°C, pH 4.0, containing 1.0 mM Ca2+), presumably due to the reversible unfolding of zymolectin molecules. A semiempirical model was developed that indicated that the flocculation behavior is affected by the cell volume fraction for both Flo1 (r2 = 0.93) and NewFlo (r2 = 0.97) strains. This semiempirical model allows adjustment of Helms values due to variation in cell volume fraction, thus partially explaining reported variations of Helms values with respect to fermentation time.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
