AI Article Synopsis

  • - The growing demand for alternative protein sources aims to address issues like food shortages and resource limitations, prompting research into diverse options.
  • - While alternatives like plant-based proteins and insect proteins need better taste and public acceptance, cell-based meat research focuses on making production more efficient and affordable.
  • - The proposed cell powder meat (CPM) boasts a high protein content, meaty flavor, and is 76% cheaper to produce without traditional scaffolds or extensive serum, highlighting its promise in the cell-based meat market.

Article Abstract

Demand for a new protein source to replace meat is increasing to solve various issues such as limited resources and food shortages. Diverse protein sources are being developed, but alternative proteins such as plants or insects need to improve people's perceptions and organoleptic properties. Therefore, cell-based meat research is intensively conducted, and most studies are aimed at scale-up and cost-down via the research of scaffolds and culture media. Here, we proposed a new food by cell powder meat (CPM), which has a high protein content and a meaty flavor. The powder was manufactured 76% more cost-effectively with less serum than the conventional culture medium and without 3D scaffold. Due to its comprehensive characteristics, the potential applicability of CPM in the cell-based meat industry could be expected.
