Abstract
The aim was to study the effect of sublimation temperature (from –20 °C to –10 °C) and sublimation time (from 18 to 40 h) on the viability of Lactobacillus fermentum K73, the moisture content and the texture features by response surface methodology. The stability of the freeze-dried powders was studied; these powders were stored at 4 °C, 25 °C, and 37 °C for 36 days. Four different matrices were used: culture medium (8% total solids), the mixture of this solution with maltodextrin: whey (0.6: 0.4), with maltodextrin or whey (40% total solids). Results showed that the sublimation conditions to increase cell viability (>8.755 log CFU/g) and to decrease moisture content (<4.087% [wet basis]) in the mixtures were –10 °C and 18 h. The image analysis successfully correlated sublimation temperature and time with the structural characteristics of the powders, cell viability, and moisture content. The shelf life study showed that the specific rate of cell viability loss was lower when the freeze-dried powders were stored at 4 °C, being the denatured whey solution the best cryoprotectant matrix during the freeze-drying process and shelf life.

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
