- Synthetic meat is a simple, artificially bred monoculture. There are no extra fat cells, delicate cartilages, which make the meat tasty. There is also a problem with such a prosaic element as the color of the meat. The muscle fibers obtained in vitro are yellow, not pink-red. However, this is an aesthetic problem. The real challenge is to reproduce the nutritional value of meat, the richness of amino acids, minerals, vitamins and other bioactive compounds important for health. The artificially created product therefore requires supplementation , which not only affects the taste, but also reduces the health value of the product and increases its price.
Bioprocess development for scalable production of cultivated meat
Abstract Traditional farm-based products based on livestock are one of the main contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. Cultivated meat is an alternative that mimics animal meat, being produced in a bioreactor under...
