About This Project
Fetal Bovine Serum or FBS is blood plasma containing essential growth factors needed for cells to turn into muscle tissue, the basis of lab grown meat. However, FBS carries the risk of bloodborne pathogens and comes at a premium cost, making lab grown meat unaffordable. We aim to solve this problem by making a genetically modified microalga to produce the same growth factors as in FBS, allowing for decreased costs, as well as faster and cleaner production of lab grown meat.
