In vitro efficiency evaluation of phage cocktail for biocontrol of Salmonella spp. in food products.
Article in Archives of microbiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This study used a set of different bacteriophages to control contaminations of Salmonella spp., a major food pathogen. A cocktail of four phages designated based on host range and in vitro lytic assay showed a lower bacteriophage insensitive mutant frequency and considerable stability at 4 °C and 28 °C up to 60 days. The work evaluated the effectiveness of cocktail of four phages in reducing Salmonella spp. in four different food matrices (liquid egg, eggshell, milk, lettuce). A maximum of 1.7 log reduction in Salmonella spp. was achieved upon treatment of liquid eggs with phage cocktail for 72 h at 4 °C. In milk, the application of phage cocktail reduced recoverable Salmonella spp. by 1.9 log and 1.8 log at 28ºC (6 h) and 4ºC (72 h), respectively. A significant 2.9 log reduction of Salmonella spp. was obtained in eggshell after a 6 h incubation and Salmonella spp. was beyond detection level after 24 h at 28ºC. The application of cocktail also reduced Salmonella spp. beyond the detectable level in lettuce after 8 h at 28 °C. Our results indicated considerable stability of phages in different food matrices. Taken together, our findings establish the potential effectiveness of the bacteriophage cocktail as a biocontrol agent for Salmonella spp. in different food matrices.
