Abstract
Water binding capacity and viscosity of soluble dietary fibers are known to be essential drivers of their nutritional benefits. Phenolic compounds, often found in the presence of dietary fibers, are also known to bind non-covalently with soluble dietary fibers. In this study, we characterized the impact of gallic acid (1-30 mM) on the physical properties of four soluble dietary fibers in solution (0.75% w/w oat β-glucans with medium and high molecular weights, 0.75% w/w guar galactomannan and 0.5% w/w xanthan mannoglucuronoglucan). Isothermal titration calorimetry and particle size analysis showed that gallic acid and soluble dietary fibers formed poorly dissociable non-covalent complexes, leading to colloidal aggregation of the fibers. Upon complexation, the physical properties of the fibers changed dramatically with up to a 65% increase in water mobility (reflecting a dramatic decrease in water binding capacity), up to a 41% increase in pseudo-plastic behavior leading to near-Newtonian behavior, and up to a 95% decrease in viscosity. This suggests that combinations of free phenolic compounds and soluble dietary fibers may be detrimental to the physical and potentially the nutritional properties of the fibers.

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
