Enzymatic modification of cotton fibre polysaccharides as an enabler of sustainable laundry detergents.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Cotton is the most common natural fibre used in textile manufacture, used alone or with other fibres to create a wide range of fashion clothing and household textiles. Most of these textiles are cleaned using detergents and domestic or commercial washing machines using processes that require many chemicals and large quantities of water and energy. Enzymes can reduce this environmental footprint by enabling effective detergency at reduced temperatures, mostly by directly attacking substrates present in the soils. In the present study, we report the contribution of a cleaning cellulase enzyme based on the family 44 glycoside hydrolase (GH) endo-beta-1,4-glucanase from Paenibacillus polymyxa. The action of this enzyme on textile fibres improves laundry detergent performance in several vectors including soil anti-redeposition, dye transfer inhibition and stain removal. Molecular probes are used to study how this enzyme is targeting both amorphous cellulose and xyloglucan on textile fibres and the relationship between textile surface effects and observed performance benefits.
