Production of yeast cell wall polysaccharides-β-glucan and chitin by using food waste substrates: Biosynthesis, production, extraction, and purification methods.
Review in Comprehensive reviews in food science and food safety, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Food waste causes significant environmental and economic challenges worldwide, prompting many nations to prioritize its reduction and recycling. As a nutrient-rich material containing vitamins, proteins, and carbohydrates, it serves as a promising substrate for the cultivation of single-cell microorganisms like yeast. Yeast cell wall polysaccharides (YCWPs), particularly chitin and β-glucans, offer valuable applications in food, pharmaceuticals, and bioprocessing. This review highlights the biosynthesis, production, extraction, and purification of YCWP cultivated on food waste substrates. Key species including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia pastoris, and Candida spp. are discussed, with a focus on optimizing chitin and β-glucan yield through mechanical, chemical, and enzymatic extraction methods. In addition, the structural and functional properties of β-glucans and chitin in maintaining cell wall stability are explored, emphasizing their potential as prebiotics, dietary fibers, and biodegradable packaging materials. This review also examines the valorization of food waste in yeast cultivation, presenting a sustainable bioprocessing strategy for transforming waste into valuable bioproducts.
