The economics of cell-cultured meat production​ “Basic thermodynamics​” dicta...

CellRx on a mission to slash cost of growth factors used in cell-cultured meat production For cell-cultured meat to be commercially viable, we’ll need to see significant movement in the price and availability of growth factors (signaling proteins that stimulate cell growth and differentiation) says UK-based CellRx, which says it can produce a proprietary version of insulin-like growth factor at a fraction of the standard price for IGF-1.
