Expediting U.S. regulatory approval for cell-cultured meat would help address some of the most pressing issues of our time.

Everyone is talking about Seaspiracy, the Netflix documentary directed by and starring Ali Tabrizi, a 27-year-old British filmmaker with a lifelong love of the oceans. It’s dominating the top three most-watched spots on the streaming platform across major markets. Celebrities are chiming in with their support and people swearing off fish for good.

It’s so full of mind-bending statistics they’re enough to drow...

CellRx​​ in the UK working on growth factors for cell cultured meat, using a variety of expression systems from genetically engineered plants to fungi, yeast, and bacteria. “But I think we are well positioned because we've been doing this for a few years,​" said Ravi, who said Richcore is also working with several food companies in the emerging precision fermentation space, offering its R&D, scale-up and manufacturing expertise to help them scale up.  " We're not starting from scratch.

The ‘meat’ in question would be a “ slurry or paste made out of meat cells, comparable to very finely ground meat, suitable for further formulation into meat-consumer products” ​as opposed to a next-generation more structured, steak-like product, explain the authors at CE Delft​​, noting that cells from water-based species can be grown at lower temperatures (15-30°C), saving some heating costs. The economics of cell-cultured meat production​ “Basic thermodynamics​” dictate that growing meat from cells in bioreactors instead of living, breathing, animals should be more ...

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. One of the many challenges facing cell-cultured meat companies is producing an affordable animal-free growth medium (early prot...
