Exploring the effects of phenolic compounds and essential oils in poultry: A sustainable strategy to combat Salmonella biofilm infections.
Review in Poultry science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The rapid growth of the global chicken industry has raised concerns about food safety, particularly Salmonella, a significant zoonotic infection associated with poultry products. Salmonella's capacity to form biofilms in farm and processing environments (slaughter, chilling, cutting, and packaging areas) makes it more resistant to disinfectants, antibiotics, and environmental stresses, complicating control attempts. Natural antibacterial agents are attracting renewed interest due to the drawbacks of traditional control strategies, such as the potential for antibiotic resistance development and harmful residuals. Plant-based phenolic compounds and essential oils (EOs) have emerged as safe, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly alternatives for inhibiting Salmonella biofilm formation during the various stages of infection and contamination in poultry, such as biofilm maturation, gut colonization, and eggshell adhesion, while preserving beneficial microbiota. These compounds also promote poultry health, performance, and gut immunity. This review examines the prevalence and causes of Salmonella biofilm development in chicken, assesses the antibiofilm and antibacterial characteristics of phenolics and EOs, and highlights their potential stage-specific applications along the poultry production chain. Furthermore, it addresses current obstacles, such as stability and delivery issues, and it also outlines future research priorities, with a focus on enhanced delivery methods, in vivo validation, and integrative approaches to sustainable biofilm control. Moreover, by focusing on stage-specific applications and resolving practical problems, this review connects laboratory discoveries to real-world chicken production, highlighting phenolic compounds and EOs as unique, residue-free Salmonella biofilm management agents with possible advantages but also potential human health safety concerns.
