Curation

What a curator decided about this record, and why. A record built from several source concepts can carry one decision per concept.

REVIEW 2026-08-14 · claude-opus-5
Reviewed and endorsed the seeder's own resolution. Cohort review: no words shared, but a bronchial wash samples the bronchus, and the bronchus is where the strain lived. Grounding a lavage specimen to its anatomical site is the right habitat reading. (source concept habitatmech:BACDIVE.d37a7e5c01)
