This meat will be grown from animal stem cells Researchers in Iceland are growing more than 100,000 genetically modified plants in a greenhouse to make artificial meat from them. Discuss
Scientists genetically edit barley. It is then harvested, purified and extracted from growth factor proteins, which, in turn, can be used to grow meat in the laboratory. Barley is grown by ORF Genetics. She uses a greenhouse with an area of more than 0.2 hectares for the experiment.
The fact is that proteins extracted from plants stimulate the growth of tissues for artificial meat, including muscle and fat cells. ORF Genetics believes such food preparation techniques will be needed in the future as the human population grows. Plus, you don't need to kill animals to create artificial meat – you just need to take stem cells from them.
