Cultivated meat and seafood

Abstract

2021 was a year of substantial progress for cultivated meat (also called cell-based meat). Several cultivated meat companies launched pilot-scale facilities, allowing them to transition from lab-scale R&D to manufacturing preparations. Additionally, governments began to provide targeted funding for cultivated meat research and provide regulatory clarity for the commercialization of cultivated meat products. Although the cultivated meat industry has yet to produce its first commercially available product, industry milestones such as large funding rounds and regulatory approval for the sale of products in Singapore indicate that the technology will soon be available to consumers. – AI-generated abstract.
