Diffdigester.uni-jena.de: a tool for optimized selection of restriction enzymes for plasmid identification in cloning procedures.
Article in Nucleic acids research, 2025. 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
Differential digests, also known as test or diagnostic digests, are a standard method in molecular cloning to verify whether a picked clone is indeed the target plasmid or not. However, finding the optimal restriction enzyme for a differential digest by hand may be challenging and time-consuming. To address this problem, we created diffdigester.uni-jena.de (https://diffdigester.uni-jena.de), a free online tool to easily find such enzymes. This tool uses regular expressions to find the restriction sites in the DNA sequences given by the user. It then calculates and displays the resulting fragments on a simulated gel for each enzyme, allowing for easy comparison between the different enzymes. The user can sort these gels alphabetically by enzyme name or by dissimilarity of the restriction patterns between the given DNA sequences. This way, the most distinct pattern is shown first, which gives the most useful enzyme to distinguish between wanted and unwanted ligation products. In fact, it also works on completely unrelated sequences, expanding its possible applications. Thus, diffdigester.uni-jena.de is a fast, reliable, and free-to-use tool to help researchers plan differential digests for verifying their ligation products.
