Integrating Benzenesulfonic Acid Pretreatment and Bio-Based Lignin-Shielding Agent for Robust Enzymatic Conversion of Cellulose in Bamboo.
Article in Polymers, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
A hydrotrope-based pretreatment, benzenesulfonic acid (BA) pretreatment, was used to fractionate bamboo in this work. With optimized content (80 wt %) of BA in pretreatment liquor, about 90% of lignin and hemicellulose could be removed from bamboo under mild conditions (95 °C, 30 min or 80 °C, 60 min). The potential accessibility of BA pretreated substrate to cellulase was thus significantly improved and was also found to be much higher than those of acidic ethanol and dilute acid pretreatments. But the deposition of lignin on the surface of solid substrates, especially the BA pretreated substrate, was also observed, which showed a negative effect on the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency. The addition of inexpensive soy protein, a bio-based lignin-shielding agent, could readily overcome this negative effect, leading the increase of enzymatic conversion of cellulose in BA pretreated substrate from 37% to 92% at a low cellulase loading of 4 FPU/g glucan. As compared to acidic ethanol and dilute acid pretreatments, the combination of BA pretreatment and soy protein could not only stably improve the efficiency of non-cellulose components removal, but also could significantly reduce the loading of cellulase.
