Antimicrobial activity enabled by chitosan-ε-polylysine-natamycin and its effect on microbial diversity of tomato scrambled egg paste.

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
For a long time, food spoilage posed a severe impairment on food safety and public health. Although chemical preservatives are commonly used to inhibit spoilage/ pathogenic microbial growth, the disadvantages of a single target, potential toxicity and high dose of use limit the better use of preservatives. In this research, the combination of natural preservatives: Natamycin (Nat), ε-polylysine (ε-PL), and Chitosan (CS) could achieve an excellent antimicrobial effect including bacteria and fungi, and reduce the usage of a single preservative. Compound preservatives could destroy microbial morphology and damage the integrity of the cell wall/membrane by leakage of protein and alkaline phosphatase (AKP). Besides, high-throughput sequencing revealed that compound preservatives could decrease microbial diversity and richness, especially,
