Abstract
Bacterial infections and surface contaminations are worrying public health issues. It becomes urgent to find solutions. One of the ways to limit bacterial proliferation is to develop new antimicrobial materials. The phenolic compounds of essential oils like thymol and carvacrol, are attractive antibacterial candidates, which have gained great popularity in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. This work describes the elaboration of bioinspired antibacterial materials. Thymol and carvacrol are linked to kraft pulp fibers, via triazine link. This novel material has been investigated for its antibacterial properties against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The developed materials show very interesting antibacterial activity. The grafting of thymol and carvacrol by covalent bond allows to avoid the problem of their release and, thus, could maintain the antibacterial properties of support.

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
