About the webinar
Join us for a webinar with Fiona Louis to learn about the bioprinting for cultured meat reconstruction.
Cultured meat is a hot topic that still is in an early stage and reproducing highly structured steak shapes is considerably challenging. A steak is indeed made of muscle tissues surrounded by fat tissues, as well as blood capillaries held together in an intricate geometry. Bioprinting appears as the ideal solution to solve this problem, improve the final structure of the meat and enable automation of the process.
Learn more as Fiona explains:
- A custom FRESH method for generation of cell fibers anchored on tendon-like collagen layers
- How to obtain a steak-like tissue including muscle fibers, fat and endothelial cells using bovine primary cells
- Qualification of different bioinks suitable for the various cellular layers
- How tendon-gel integrated bioprinting could be a promising technology for the fabrication of steak-like cultured meats
