This will enhance the company's ability to produce
high-quality structured pork products at scale
REHOVOT, Israel, Nov. 10,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Steakholder Foods Ltd. (NASDAQ:
STKH), (formerly MeaTech 3D: MITC), an international deep-tech food
company at the forefront of the cultured meat industry, today
announced that it has successfully differentiated porcine fat cells
from its induced pluripotent stem cell line.
This line of stem cells will enable the company to produce an
unlimited amount of fat and muscle cells. This is a significant
step forward in the company's ability to develop high-quality
3D-printed whole-cut pork products at scale.
Cultivated pork is part of Steakholder Foods' diverse species
portfolio under development along with beef, chicken, and fish.
Arik Kaufman, CEO of
Steakholder Foods: "This R&D achievement strengthens our
diverse cell lines and capabilities toward accomplishing our
mission of 3D printing structured cultivated meat products at
scale."
Steakholder Foods strengthens its IP with first Canadian
patent
In a continued effort to strengthen its IP, Steakholder Foods
has recently been granted its first Canadian patent for systems and
methods to apply external forces to muscle tissue that result in
the development of high-quality complex structured meat. This
patent is another boost to the company's growing global patent
portfolio, following similar grants earlier this year in the US,
Australia and New Zealand.
