Curation

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

CONFIRM_UNGROUNDED 2026-08-16 · claude-opus-5
Confirmed UNGROUNDED: no ontology term fits this concept. Variant-match review (#12): the variant route strips GOLD's parenthetical and reaches UBERON:0002622 'preoptic periventricular nucleus', a structure in the BRAIN, for a class of industrial chemicals. The path is Engineered > Bioremediation > Persistent organic pollutants (POP), so the habitat is the contaminated material being remediated; the pollutants themselves are chemicals rather than places, and no term in the slice names the habitat. Path: Engineered > Bioremediation > Persistent organic pollutants (POP) (source concept habitatmech:GOLD.1a78606807)
