Everyone can imagine a traditional farm. At LabFarm we want to grow meat in a way similar to growing grains. There is a clear reason why the process of producing meat in a lab is called cellular agriculture. The laboratory is our field, scientists are farmers, and selected cells are our seeds. Ultimately, instead of wheat, we grow clean meat.
Why breed the whole animal when you only need its part? Cultivating meat is the perfect answer to this long-standing question as it allows you to eat chicken and have a chicken too.
Clean meat is as real as wholesome, identical at the cellular level to conventional meat. What is more, being antibiotic- and pollutant-free it is perfectly safe. The only difference between cultured and conventional meat is that the former is grown in cell culture outside the body of an animal so that the animal can survive.
The destination of the selected cells is a bioreactor (also called a “cultivator”), which resembles a brewery vat. It provides the cells with a stable environment, that is, the energy and warmth necessary for growth.
After a few weeks’ growth, the meat is ready for harvest. It must be noted that there are no by-products or animal waste, only clean flesh without bones, skin or feathers.
It all begins with aspirating cells (of fat, muscle and other tissue) from a carefully selected animal. Afterwards, the collected sample is tested in order to select the particular cells which are ideal for growing healthy, delicious and ethical meat.
The cells in the bioreactors grow and differentiate just as they would in the body of an animal. In order to grow into entire structures, they need traditional nutrients such as acids, fats and vitamins.
Dinner is served! The final product is ready to be cooked and eaten the way you like it. Clean meat is as real, delicious and nutritionally dense as traditional meat, but, by contrast, completely safe, i.e. free from antibiotics and contamination.
