Exopolysaccharide produced from Lactiplantibacillus plantarum HAN99 and its nanoparticle formulations in agricultural applications.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
In this study, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum HAN99, isolated from sediment samples collected along the Alexandria Mediterranean Seacoast in Egypt, was evaluated for its ability to produce polysaccharides. To optimize polysaccharide production, statistical techniques were used, and the extracted polysaccharides were purified for further characterization. High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analysis identified glucose and galactose as the primary components of the polysaccharide. These polysaccharides were then loaded onto chitosan-based nanoparticles, which were characterized using Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The study further investigated the potential agricultural applications of the polysaccharide-loaded nanoparticles by assessing their effects on plant growth. The results revealed that the nanoparticles enhanced the growth of Mentha (mint) leaves, reducing leaf loss compared to the control group. Additionally, the EPS chitosan-based nanoparticles exhibited strong antioxidant activity, as demonstrated by a DPPH assay (∼75.6-80.3%). These findings highlight the potential of microbial polysaccharides as sustainable, eco-friendly alternatives for agricultural enhancement and the development of green agricultural practices.
