BADAN-conjugated β-lactamases as biosensors for β-lactam antibiotic detection.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
β-Lactam antibiotic detection has significant implications in food safety control, environmental monitoring and pharmacokinetics study. Here, we report the development of two BADAN-conjugated β-lactamases, E166Cb and E166Cb/N170Q, as sensitive biosensors for β-lactam antibiotic detection. These biosensors were constructed by coupling an environment-sensitive BADAN probe onto location 166 at the active site of the PenP β-lactamase E166C and E166C/N170Q mutants. They gave fluorescence turn-on signals in response to β-lactam antibiotics. Molecular dynamics simulation of E166Cb suggested that the turn-on signal might be attributed to a polarity change of the microenvironment of BADAN and the removal of the fluorescence quenching effect on BADAN exerted by a nearby Tyr-105 upon the antibiotic binding. In the detection of four β-lactams (penicillin G, penicillin V, cefotaxime and moxalactam), both E166Cb and E166Cb/N170Q delivered signal outputs in an antibiotic-concentration dependent manner with a dynamic range spanning from 10 nM to 1 μM. Compared to E166Cb, E166Cb/N170Q generally exhibited more stable signals owing to its higher deficiency in hydrolyzing the antibiotic analyte. The overall biosensor performance of E166Cb and E166Cb/N170Q was comparable to that of their respective fluorescein-modified counterparts, E166Cf and E166Cf/N170Q. But comparatively, the BADAN-conjugated enzymes showed a higher sensitivity, displayed a faster response in detecting moxalactam and a more stable fluorescence signals towards penicillin G. This study illustrates the potential of BADAN-conjugated β-lactamases as biosensing devices for β-lactam antibiotics.
