Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A total of 660 pasteurized milk samples were obtained from 22 Ontario dairy plants between November 1999 and March 2000. The incidence of psychrotrophic ' B. cereus' was 6.3% after incubation at 7°C for 14 days and 43.6% after incubation at 10°C for 7 days. Growth of isolates obtained from 10°C incubation suggested that enumeration of psychrotrophic ' B. cereus' can be possible using the shorter incubation period. Presence of 'B. cereus' in the milk supply of one dairy was investigated in detail. Raw milk samples from bulk tanks (68), delivery trucks (6) and silo (4), as well as pasteurized milk (4) and environmental swabs (11) were tested. The average 'B. cereus' spore counts/60 mL of milk were 7.2, 101 and 87 for bulk tank, delivery truck and silo tank, respectively. The results suggested that hygiene procedures are crucial to reduce 'B. cereus' spore contamination in raw milk.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
