Variovoracins: new glycolipopeptide biosurfactants identified by surfactant screening and genome mining.
Article in RSC advances, 2026. 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
Increasing awareness of the environmental issues associated with conventional surfactants has incentivized the chemical industry to develop more sustainable alternatives such as biosurfactants, which are a class of surface-active molecules produced by microorganisms. Biosurfactants are environmentally benign and have the potential to be manufactured sustainably through microbial fermentations fed by renewable feedstocks, unlike conventional surfactants produced from petrochemical feedstocks. Biosurfactants therefore have an important role in the development of sustainable surfactants for consumer and industrial use. To identify new biosurfactants, we screened a microbial library for strains producing emulsifiers. Analysis of active microbial extracts by UHPLC-HRMS led to the identification of the variovoracins, a new class of glycolipopeptide biosurfactants, from
