Endophytic bacteria and fungi as a source of polysaccharides: production and characterization techniques.
Review in Frontiers in microbiology, 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
Polymers, mainly polysaccharides, are a class of macromolecules that have a variety of structural and functional roles in biological systems. Recently, research on polysaccharides, especially exopolysaccharides (EPS) from microbial sources, has gained significant interest. These substances are valued for their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and wide range of applications across the pharmaceutical, biomedical, and industrial sectors. Endophytic microorganisms, which live inside healthy plant tissues, are a newly discovered sustainable source of exopolysaccharides. This article reviews research on endophytic bacteria and fungi that produce polysaccharides. The major focus is on summarizing the production and characterization techniques used. It includes extraction, purification, and structural analysis, including chromatographic, spectroscopic, and microscopic techniques. Additionally, tables summarizing features of polysaccharides from both bacterial and fungal endophytes, and a table on the characterization techniques and biological activities of these polysaccharides are included. By consolidating current insights and identifying existing gaps, this review seeks to enhance understanding of endophytic polysaccharides.
