Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The maximum adsorption capacities of Cu(II) and Zn(II) by silver birch biochar reached 128 μg/g and 107 μg/g, respectively.
“The results showed that the maximum adsorption capacities of Cu(II) and Zn(II) reached up to 128 μg/g and 107 μg/g, respectively”
From Review of organic and inorganic pollutants removal by biochar and biochar-based composites (2021) · cites this paper as Komkiene and Baltrenaite (2016)
The Adsorption isotherm section reports a maximum of 128.7 μg/g for Cu(II) on silver birch biochar, approximately the cited 128 μg/g. It reports 107.0 μg/g for Zn(II) on Scots pine biochar, not silver birch biochar. (LLM, conf=0.90)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
