Steakholder Foods Ltd. (formerly MeaTech 3D), an international deep-tech food company at the forefront of the cultured meat industry, has announced it will begin developing cultured pork products from a new line of induced pluripotent (iPS) porcine cells.
The new stem cell line was derived from sampled cells that were reprogrammed back into an embryonic-like pluripotent state. This enables one cell bank to become an unlimited and highly scalable source for developing any type of muscle or fat cells for cultured meat production.
