报告人及内容简介：
Manxi Huang is a third-year PhD candidate in Food and Nutritional Sciences at the University of Reading, specializing in converting spent coffee grounds into functional carbohydrates like cellobiose. With expertise in sustainable food systems, She focuses on developing prebiotic ingredients through advanced extraction methods and enzymatic hydrolysis. Her experience spans human trials, in vitro fermentation models, and 16S RNA sequencing to evaluate microbial community
The presentation will explore the valorization of spent coffee grounds (SCG) as a sustainable resource for producing functional carbohydrates with prebiotic potential. It examines key extraction methods, including pre-treatments and enzymatic techniques, for obtaining cello-oligosaccharides. The report also highlights strategies to enhance oligosaccharide yield through pretreatment processes and the characterization of SCG-derived compounds. Finally, it evaluates the prebiotic potential of the commercial cellobiose through in vitro and in vivo studies, revealing their role in potentially promoting gut health. By addressing both challenges and opportunities, this report will provide a comprehensive overview of SCG valorization in the context of functional food development.
