Evaluation and comparison of colorimetric outputs for yeast-based biosensors in laboratory and point-of-use settings.
Article in FEMS microbiology letters, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Recent research has shown the potential of yeast-based biosensors (YBBs) for point-of-use detection of pathogens and target molecules in saliva, blood, and urine samples. The choice of output can greatly affect the sensitivity, dynamic range, detection time, and ease-of-use of a sensor. For visual detection without the need for additional reagents or machinery, colorimetric outputs have shown great potential. Here, we evaluated the inducible generation of prodeoxyviolacein and proviolacein as colorimetric YBB outputs and benchmarked these against lycopene. The outputs were induced via the yeast mating pathway and were compared on agar plates, in liquid culture, and on paper slips. We found that all three outputs produced comparable pigment intensity on agar plates, making them applicable for bioengineering settings. In liquid media and on paper slips, lycopene resulted in a higher intensity pigment and a decreased time-of-detection.
