Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the present study, the combined toxic effect of microplastics and their additives (five) on aquatic organisms (zebrafish) was studied using full factorial design method, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation technology. The aquatic toxicity control programmer was designed to improve the optimal combination of plasticizer and microplastics based on the design of environment-friendly phthalic acid ester (PAE) derivatives. First, a total of 64 groups of microplastic-additives were designed using the full factorial design method. Next, the microplastic-additives and aquatic receptor protein were docked together, and the binding energy of these complexes was calculated using the MD simulation method. The results revealed that the aquatic toxicity effects of different microplastic-additive combinations were variable; therefore, the optimal combination of microplastics exhibiting the lowest aquatic toxicity effect could be screened out. Base on the analyzing the bonding effect and surrounded amino acid residues between the microplastic additives and receptor protein, the main driving forces for the binding of the microplastic-additive and the protein were hydrophobic force, hydrogen bonding force and electrostatic force. The main effects and the second-order interaction of the microplastic-additives combination were analyzed using the fixed-effect model. The main additives that affect the aquatic toxicity of the microplastics can be known. In addition, based on the MD simulation of the molecular replacement of PAE derivatives, the optimal level of component combination of low aquatic toxicity effect of microplastics was constructed.

Not 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.
