Prioritizing molecular formulae identified by non-target analysis through high-throughput modelling: application to identify compounds with high human accumulation potential from house dust
Bibliographic record
Abstract
, a high potential for bioaccumulation in humans or wildlife. The procedure involves the identification of isomers that could plausibly represent the molecular formulae assigned to NTA-detected chemical features. For each isomer, the prioritization metric is calculated using properties predicted with high-throughput methods. After the molecular formulae are ranked based on the average values of the prioritization metric calculated for all isomers assigned to a formula, the highest ranked molecular formulae are prioritized for structure elucidation. We applied this workflow to features identified in house dust, using the ratio of chemical intake through dust ingestion to chemical concentration in blood (dose-to-concentration ratio, DCR) as the prioritization metric. Collections of isomers for the molecular formulae were assembled from the PubChem database and DCR was estimated using partitioning and biotransformation properties predicted for each isomer using quantitative structure property relationships. The ten top-ranked molecular formulae with notably lower average DCR-values represented mostly compounds already known to be indoor pollutants of concern, such as two polybrominated diphenyl ethers, bis(2-ethylhexyl) tetrabromophthalate, tetrabromobisphenol A, tris(1,3-dichloroisopropyl)phosphate and the azo dye disperse blue 373.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
