Final report of CCQM-K86.c. Relative quantification of genomic DNA fragments extracted from a biological tissue
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Key comparison CCQM-K86.c was performed to demonstrate the capacity of National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) and Designated Institutes (DIs) in the determination of the relative quantity of two specific genomic DNA fragments present in a canola powder. The study provides direct support for the following measurement claim: "Quantification of the ratio of the number of copies of specified intact sequence fragments of a length up to 150 nucleotides following extraction from an unprocessed, high fat/oil ground seed matrix, with a copy number ratio from 0.001 to 1". The study was carried out under the auspices of the Nucleic Acids Working Group (NAWG) of the Consultative Committee for Amount of Substance: Metrology in Chemistry and Biology (CCQM) and was jointly coordinated by the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) and the EU Joint Research Centre, Geel (JRC). The following laboratories (in alphabetical order) submitted measurement results in this key comparison study: Centro Nacional de Metrología, Mexico ("CENAM"); D.I. Mendeleyev Institute of Metrology, Russia ("VNIIM"); EU Joint Research Centre, Geel (JRC); Hong Kong Government Laboratory ("GLHK"); Instituto Nacional de Metrología de Colombia ("INM"); LGC (United Kingdom); National Institute of Biology, Slovenia ("NIB"); National Institute of Metrology, P.R. of China ("NIM China"/"NIMC" [figures]); National Institute of Metrology, Thailand (NIMT); National Measurement Institute, Australia ("NMIA"); National Metrology Institute of Japan, AIST, Japan ("NMIJ"); National Metrology Institute of Turkey ("TÜBITAK").

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
