- The Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) has entered into a collaborative research agreement to grow fish meat in the laboratory.
- It is merely a type of lab-grown - or cultivated/ cultured meat.
- Seafood without the sea is ‘grown’ in the same way as other cultivated meats are grown.
- So, it was without the need to raise a and kill an animal.
- Cultivated fish meat is produced by isolating specific cells from fish and growing them in a laboratory setting using media that is free of animal components.
- The final product is expected to replicate the flavour, texture, and nutritional qualities of ‘real’ fish meat.
- The Dutch pharmacologist Mark Post was the first to present a proof of concept for cultured meat in 2013.
- In June 2023, the US Department of Agriculture cleared the sale of lab grown chicken meat in the country.
