Advances in L-Lactic Acid Production from Lignocellulose Using Genetically Modified Microbial Systems.
Review in Polymers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Lactic acid is a vital organic acid with a wide range of industrial applications, particularly in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and biomedical sectors. The conventional production of lactic acid from refined sugars poses high costs and significant environmental impacts, leading to the exploration of alternative raw materials and more sustainable processes. Lignocellulosic biomass, particularly agro-industrial residues such as agave bagasse, represents a promising substrate for lactic acid production. Agave bagasse, a by-product of the tequila and mezcal industries, is rich in fermentable carbohydrates, making it an ideal raw material for biotechnological processes. The use of lactic acid bacteria (LAB), particularly genetically modified microorganisms (GMMs), has been shown to enhance fermentation efficiency and lactic acid yield. This review explores the potential of lignocellulosic biomass as a substrate for microbial fermentation to produce lactic acid and other high-value products. It covers the composition and pretreatment of some agricultural residues, the selection of suitable microorganisms, and the optimization of fermentation conditions. The paper highlights the promising future of agro-industrial residue valorization through biotechnological processes and the sustainable production of lactic acid as an alternative to conventional methods.
