1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundMicrobial lipid is a potential raw material for large-scale biodiesel production and lignocellulosic hydrolysate has been considered as promising low-cost substrate for lipid fermentation. Lignocellulosic biomass needs to be pretreated before enzymatic hydrolysis, and biocompatible cholinium ionic liquids (ILs) have been demonstrated to be highly efficient for pretreatment. However, the impact of these ILs residues in hydrolysates on downstream biotransformation remains unknown. Therefore, the influence of three typical cholinium ILs on the lipid production by Trichosporon fermentans was first investigated.

resultsThe cell growth of T. fermentans was stimulated in the presence of cholinium lysine ([Ch][Lys]) and cholinium serine ([Ch][Ser]), while the lipid accumulation was inhibited by [Ch][Lys]) and [Ch][Ser]. Both cell growth and lipid accumulation of T. fermentans were inhibited in the presence of cholinium acetate ([Ch][OAc]). Despite the reduction in lipid content, the lipid production by T. fermentans was improved in the presence of low concentrations of [Ch][Lys] (≤30 mM) and [Ch][Ser] (≤20 mM) due to the remarkable increase of biomass. It was found that cholinium cation had minor influence on lipid production. However, the anions of [Ch][Lys] and [Ch][Ser] could be assimilated as nitrogen source by T. fermentans and the reduced C/N ratio accounts for the inhibition of lipid accumulation, which could be alleviated by improving C/N ratio of medium. In addition, the anion of [Ch][OAc] could be metabolized by T. fermentans, leading to a rapid alkaline-pH shift and strong inhibition of lipid production. And this inhibitory effect on lipid production could be significantly reduced by controlling culture pH.

conclusionsThe anions of [Ch][Lys], [Ch][Ser] and [Ch][OAc] play an important role in affecting the cell growth and lipid accumulation of T. fermentans, and the inhibition of these three ILs on lipid production can be alleviated by careful fermentation condition control. Hence, T. fermentans is a promising strain for microbial lipid production from cholinium ILs-pretreated lignocellulosic hydrolysates.
