Development of economically sustainable media components for optimal growth of cell cultures for in vitro fish meat. (Clean Fish)
Project
Project code: TI-FI-08-FI-2021-2399, 989/PFAU-FUE-V-16-2/2021-ZB
Contract period: 01.10.2021
- 30.09.2023
Budget: 342,977 Euro
Purpose of research: Experimental development
Fish meat from cell culture - in vitro fish - is an alternative technique for food production without industrial fishery, without conventional animal husbandry and without harm for animals. The increasing global demand for animal protein calls for alternatives in food production. One possibility is in vitro production of fish meat. Stem cells were isolated from fish biopsies and developed to muscle tissue cells. They were then used for fish meat production. This process takes place in vitro with specialized media in a bio reactor. This is the innovative idea behind Clean Fish project. The products will be investigated for nutritionally valuable ingredients as well as for contaminants.
