| | | Hello New Harvest, Here’s part five of our seven-part series sharing all 45 of the peer-reviewed publications supported by New Harvest.
Part V is about media: the liquid that cells grow and divide within, and its many components.
These next compilations of papers are starting to get really technical. We tried to give an easy overview for a non-science audience so you can grasp the importance of this work. |

PART V: MEDIA (in chronological order)- This study highlights the benefits of a critical growth factor for cultured meat production.
- This paper shows that adding heme proteins makes cultured meat tastier and faster to grow.
- Ever wondered why we need better culture media? This paper explains it all!
- This paper was the foundation for New Harvest Research Fellow Zachary’s 2021 publication on culture media optimization (the paper #5 below).
- Optimizing media is critical to scale. Machine learning makes the tedious experiments to optimize culture media faster and more efficient.
- This paper looks at further improving upon the machine learning approach to media optimization published in 2021 (the paper #5 above).
- This paper shares the recipe for the infamous Beefy-9 media - optimizing the classic B8 media, but for beef production.
- Want to know how to make growth factors cheaper? Find out here!
- Turns out that tailoring media to the cell type can decrease the cost and waste of growing cultured meat.
