Worlds First Cultivated Meat B2B Marketplace: Read Announcement
Quest Meat is a UK-based biotechnology company enabling the next generation of cultivated meat by supplying low-cost, food-safe ingredients and bioprocessing tools tailored for the cell-based food industry. Their work centres on removing key bottlenecks - such as animal-derived serum and expensive pharma-grade components - so that cultivated meat becomes affordable and scalable. With a mission to eliminate slaughter, reduce emissions and democratise access to nutritious protein, Quest Meat supports producers around the world in advancing cruelty-free, sustainable food systems.
Today we're launching Cellbase. It's a B2B marketplace built for one purpose: making it easier for cultivated meat companies to source what they need to grow. No hype. No grand...
When producing cultivated meat, choosing between reusable and single-use bioprocessing systems is a key decision. Each option has distinct advantages and challenges, particularly around cost, scalability, and resource use. Here's...
Scaffolds are critical in producing cultivated meat, providing a 3D framework for cells to grow into structured, meat-like tissues. The choice of biomaterial affects everything from texture and mouthfeel to...
When choosing a bioreactor for cultivated meat production, single-use systems and reusable systems each offer distinct cost advantages and challenges. Here's the key takeaway: Single-Use Bioreactors: Lower upfront costs (50–66%...
Precision Monitoring & Regulation: Automated systems maintain optimal conditions (e.g., temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen) in bioreactors, ensuring consistent cell growth and reducing batch failures. Cost Efficiency: Automation optimises resource use,...
Cultivated meat production is expensive, with growth media alone making up 55–95% of costs. Reducing these costs requires smarter sourcing strategies. UK producers face a key decision: buy from local...
Choosing between single-use and reusable systems for cultivated meat production depends heavily on production scale and financial priorities. Here's a quick breakdown: Single-use systems: Lower upfront costs (50–66% less than...
Maintaining a stable pH is critical for cultivated meat production, as mammalian cells require a narrow pH range of 7.4 ± 0.4 to grow effectively. Even minor pH fluctuations can...
