Characterization of the exopolymer-producing Pseudoalteromonas sp. S8-8 from Antarctic sediment.
Article in Applied microbiology and biotechnology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 synergistic approach using cultivation methods, chemical, and bioinformatic analyses was applied to explore the potential of Pseudoalteromonas sp. S8-8 in the production of extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) and the possible physiological traits related to heavy metal and/or antibiotic resistance. The effects of different parameters (carbon source, carbon source concentration, temperature, pH and NaCl supplement) were tested to ensure the optimization of growth conditions for EPS production by the strain S8-8. The highest yield of EPS was obtained during growth in culture medium supplemented with glucose (final concentration 2%) and NaCl (final concentration 3%), at 15 °C and pH 7. The EPS was mainly composed of carbohydrates (35%), followed by proteins and uronic acids (2.5 and 2.77%, respectively) and showed a monosaccharidic composition of glucose: mannose: galactosamine: galactose in the relative molar proportions of 1:0.7:0.5:0.4, as showed by the HPAE-PAD analysis. The detection of specific molecular groups (sulfates and uronic acid content) supported the interesting properties of EPSs, i.e. the emulsifying and cryoprotective action, heavy metal chelation, with interesting implication in bioremediation and biomedical fields. The analysis of the genome allowed to identify a cluster of genes involved in cellulose biosynthesis, and two additional gene clusters putatively involved in EPS biosynthesis. KEY POINTS: • A cold-adapted Pseudoalteromonas strain was investigated for EPS production. • The EPS showed emulsifying, cryoprotective, and heavy metal chelation functions. • Three gene clusters putatively involved in EPS biosynthesis were evidenced by genomic insights.
