Characterizing the growth of PHA-producing microorganisms on short-chain carboxylic acids.
Article in Microbial cell factories, 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
Short-chain carboxylic acids are important chemical intermediates in anaerobic treatment or thermal hydrolysis of biowaste. They are a crucial precursor for the production of Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) by various microorganisms. However, there is limited data on the growth behavior of PHA-producing microorganisms on carboxylic acids and their tolerance range. Therefore, this study aims to systematically determine the growth behavior of four commonly used PHA-producing microorganisms (Cupriacidus necator, Pseudomonas putida, Azohydromonas australica, and Haloferax mediterranei) on different carboxylic acids (formic, acetic, propionic, valeric, and levulinic acid). Batch experiments were conducted in a microbioreactor to determine the maximum specific growth rates (µ
