Phytochemical Profiling and Anti-Bacterial Activity of Red Delicious Apple Pomace With Integrated Hydrolysis to Obtain Fermentable Sugars: A Biorefinery Approach.
Article in Food science & nutrition, 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
Apple pomace (AP) is a byproduct of juice processing, rich in nutritionally important compounds like carbohydrates, phenolic compounds, dietary fiber, and minerals. It is a potential feedstock for sugar-based biorefineries. This study explored AP physicochemical and bioactive compounds and their hydrolysis to extract fermentable sugar. Results showed that AP had a below-neutral pH, moisture, acidity, and ash. The AP contained crude fiber (27.22%), total sugar (36.75%), and reduced sugar (12.22%). The extracts contained minerals like potassium, calcium, magnesium, aluminum, iron, boron, and zinc. A GC-MS study analyzed the phytochemicals present in AP extracts, revealing prominent antibacterial activity. The optimal conditions for enzymatic hydrolysis were found to be 1 mg/g substrate of cellulase and pectinase at 50°C and pH 5.0 at 24 h of incubation. Enzymatically hydrolyzed AP showed a high yield of reducing sugar (38.33%) compared to non-hydrolyzed AP (12.22%). The study suggests that AP, currently discarded as industrial bio-waste, is still a source of phytochemicals with significant antioxidant and antibacterial activities.
