Green valorization of garlic peel waste using halophilic laccase for efficient biomass delignification and biorefinery applications.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
Lignocellulosic biomass, mainly composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, is an abundant renewable resource in agricultural and forestry residues. In contrast to cellulose and hemicellulose, lignin remains underutilized due to its complex structure. In this study, a halophilic bacterium, Virgibacillus salarius was isolated, and its laccase production was optimized for delignification. Using response surface methodology (RSM), a maximum laccase activity of 392.0 U L⁻¹ was achieved. This enzyme demonstrated high efficiency, reducing lignin content in garlic peel from 32.4 to 3.6% and increasing cellulose content from 42.1 to 44.1%. Additionally, the delignified biomass exhibited increased crystallinity and a porous surface, enhancing its suitability for further processing. The delignification process yielded valuable by-products, including 3-hydroxybenzoic acid (a food preservative and flavor enhancer) and aromatic compounds such as 2-methoxyphenol (guaiacol) and ethyl-2-methoxyphenol (homovanillin), which are widely used as flavoring agents. These findings emphasize the potential of V. salarius laccase in sustainable biomass conversion for industrial applications.
