Aleph Farms institutes proprietary technology to expand uses of clean meat
Until now, clean meat—animal meat grown in a clean setting rather than in an animal—has often been limited to simple structures of one or two types of cell tissue, limiting its applications to ground meat.
Aleph Farms Ltd., Israel, announced two advances in the production of clean meat—expanding the composition of the meat itself and growing it in a more structured way.
Until now, clean meat—animal meat grown in a clean setting rather than in an animal—has often been limited to simple structures of one or two types of cell tissue, limiting its applications to ground meat.
“It has been a major hurdle to mimic meat’s many properties, such as texture, shape, juiciness and flavor,” says Shulamit Levenberg, co-founder and chief scientific officer. “Our use of the four cell types found in conventional cuts of meat, including vascular and connective tissues, is the key to a product that will be closer to the beef that people crave.”
