Sustainable trehalose lipid production by Rhodotorula sp.: a promising bio-based alternative.

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
Global environmental concerns drive research toward the development of new eco-friendly compounds to replace pollutant chemicals. This study focuses on optimizing the production of trehalose lipids (TLs), which are glycolipid biosurfactants (BS) with various applications like antimicrobial or surface tension reduction. New microorganism sources, growth conditions, medium composition, purification conditions, and physicochemical properties of TLs are studied. Addressing a microscale approach, TLs production was successfully achieved using Rhodotorula sp. and Rhodococcus erythropolis to compare, with different media compositions including glucose-based and salt media supplemented with glycerol, glucose, n-hexadecane, n-dodecane. Liquid-liquid extraction using ethyl acetate and methanol was employed for compound extraction, followed by characterization using analytical methods such as Thin layer chromatography (TLC), High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and UHPLC. The produced TLs exhibited a minimum surface tension of 47 mN/m and a critical micellar concentration of 4.4 mg/mL. This study also identified Rhodotorula sp. as a new sustainable producer of TLs with improved productivity.
