Catalyzing urea hydrolysis using two-step microbial-induced carbonate precipitation for copper immobilization: Perspective of pH regulation.

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
Microbial induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) has recently applied to immobilize heavy metals toward preventing their threats to public health and sustainable development of surrounding environments. However, for copper metallurgy activities higher copper ion concentrations cause the ureolytic bacteria to lose their activity, leading to some difficulty in forming carbonate precipitation for copper immobilization (referred to also as "biomineralization"). A series test tube experiments were conducted in the present work to investigate the effects of bacterial inoculation and pH conditions on the copper immobilization efficiency. The numerical simulations mainly aimed to compare with the experimental results to verify its applicability. The copper immobilization efficiency was attained through azurite precipitation under pH in a 4-6 range, while due to Cu
