Abstract Baryon number conservation is not guaranteed by any fundamental symmetry within the standard model, and therefore has been a subject of experimental theoretical scrutiny for decades. So far, no evidence baryon violation observed. Large underground detectors have long used both neutrino detection searches violating processes.
