A Novel Approach for the Development of Low-Cost Polymeric Thin-Film Nanocomposite Membranes for the Biomacromolecule Separation.
Article in ACS omega, 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
The separation of biomacromolecules, mainly proteins, plays a significant role in the pharmaceutical and food industries. Among the membranes' techniques, thin-film nanocomposite nanofiltration membranes are the best choice due to their high energy efficiency, excellent productivity, cost-effective and tuneable properties that have captured the attention of the efficient separation of biomacromolecules, especially from the industrial perspective. The present work directs the efficient separation study of proteins, namely, lysozyme, trypsin, pepsin, bovine serum albumin (BSA), and cephalexin, using a thin-film nanocomposite membrane integrated with Arg-MMT (arginine-montmorillonite) clay nanoparticles. The surface morphology and cross-section images of the TFN membranes were studied using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM). The thermal stability and hydrophilicity of the membranes were examined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and contact angle, respectively. The surface chemistry of the selective layer has different functional groups that were analyzed using FTIR spectroscopy. The performance of the membranes was studied at different trans-membrane pressures and permeation times. The effect of monomer concentration on the separation performance of the membranes was also studied at different permeation times. The membranes' antibacterial activity was evaluated using the Muller-Hinton disk diffusion method using gram-negative
