  • The presence of Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus niger in the fungal isolates aligns with earlier findings on the fungal flora of coconut water.

    “Additionally, the presence of Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus niger in the fungal isolates aligns with earlier findings on the fungal flora of coconut water (Chuku et al., 2007).”

    From Characterization and Antibiotic Susceptibility of Bacteria Isolated from Coconut Water (Cocos Nucifera L.) and Phytochemical Analysis of Methanolic Extract of Coconut Husk (2025) · cites this paper as Chuku et al., 2007

    The Results (p. 3) identify Aspergillus niger among fungi isolated from coconut, and the Conclusion (p. 5) specifies that the isolates came from the endosperm (copra). The paper does not identify Aspergillus flavus or report fungal isolates from coconut water; its mention of water concerns composition analysis, not fungal flora. (LLM, conf=0.88)

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.
