Plants lipases: challenges, recent advances, and future prospects - a review.
Review in Bioprocess and biosystems engineering, 2025. 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
Plant lipases offer a sustainable and promising alternative for various industrial applications, with increasing use in biocatalytic processes in recent years. Leveraging plants as renewable resources reduces dependence on animal or microbial sources, providing significant potential for sustainable lipase production. These lipases are biodegradable and less toxic, enhancing their cost-effectiveness, particularly when sourced from plants with additional economic value. The diversity of plant species offers a wide array of lipases with different properties, broadening their industrial applications. Additionally, integrating plant lipase production into existing agricultural processes by using agricultural residues or by-products as enzyme sources can reduce costs and add value to waste materials. Despite their potential, several challenges must be addressed for the effective utilization of plant-derived lipases. Reducing extraction and purification costs is essential to make these enzymes competitive with other sources. Advancements in the biochemical and structural characterization of plant lipases have facilitated enzymatic engineering approaches to enhance enzyme stability, specificity, and catalytic efficiency. A review of the current research can help identify gaps and suggest new directions for enzyme development and technological advancements. Understanding the mechanisms of action and unique properties of plant lipases can drive innovations in biocatalytic processes. This review aims to highlight the characteristics of plant lipases and the challenges in their extraction, purification, and stability. This study conducted a narrative review using a database of relevant studies, selecting 92 studies. The future of plant lipases holds great promise for transformative impacts across various industries, promoting more sustainable and innovative practices.
