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 2026-08-14 · claude-opus-5
Confirmed UNGROUNDED: no ontology term fits this concept. Grounding-cohort review (#62): was FOODON:03544454 '44540 - starter cultures (efsa foodex2)', a food-classification code rather than a place. A starter culture is a real habitat for the organisms in it; the slice has no term that is one. (source concept habitatmech:BACDIVE.9eabedc3a1)
