Exploring the Acetobacteraceae family isolated from kombucha SCOBYs worldwide and comparing yield and characteristics of biocellulose under various fermentation conditions.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a cellulosic biopolymer produced by specific acetic acid bacteria during kombucha fermentation. In this study, bacterial cellulose-producing strains were isolated from four different global kombucha SCOBY samples obtained from markets in the Netherlands, America, China, and Iran. The strains were identified using biochemical and molecular techniques. The ability of species to produce BC was evaluated under both static and stirred fermentation conditions. Seven dominant strains from the Acetobacteraceae family and the genus of Komagataeibacter and Gluconacetobacter were identified and submitted to NCBI gene bank archives: K. xylinus CH1, K. sucrofermentans IR2, K. intermedius IR3, K. cocois AM2, K. sucrofermentans NE4, K. cocois NE6, and G. liquefaciens NE7. Among these, K. intermedius IR3, isolated from local Iranian SCOBY, exhibited the highest BC production yield at 5.733 ± 0.170 gL
