Abstract
Global enzyme markets valued at roughly 12.3 billion USD in 2023 continue to expand, and xylanases account for a growing share of industrial demand. This research optimized culture conditions for xylanase production by a locally isolated Bacillus species (strain BX-17) using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) based on a Central Composite Design (CCD). The organism was isolated from decomposing hardwood samples collected near Toronto, Canada, and identified through 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Initial screening of six variables through a Plackett-Burman design identified temperature, pH, and substrate concentration as the three most significant factors affecting enzyme yield. A 2³ CCD with five center points generated 20 experimental runs. The resulting quadratic model showed strong fit (R² = 0.964, adjusted R² = 0.938, p

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 it
