Food waste causes significant environmental and economic challenges worldwide, prompting many nations to prioritize its reduction recycling. As a nutrient-rich material containing vitamins, proteins, carbohydrates, it serves as promising substrate for the cultivation of single-cell microorganisms like yeast. Yeast cell wall polysaccharides (YCWPs), particularly chitin β-glucans, offer valuable applications in food, pharmaceuticals, bioprocessing. This review highlights biosynthesis, production, extraction, purification YCWP cultivated on food substrates. Key species including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia pastoris, Candida spp. are discussed, with focus optimizing β-glucan yield through mechanical, chemical, enzymatic extraction methods. In addition, structural functional properties β-glucans maintaining stability explored, emphasizing their potential prebiotics, dietary fibers, biodegradable packaging materials. also examines valorization yeast cultivation, presenting sustainable bioprocessing strategy transforming into bioproducts.
