Scientific evolution has made xo auto food production no longer necessary in farmland or farms, and Singapore authorities have recently approved the production of chicken for consumption from scientific laboratories.

Reuters reports that the lab-produced chicken will soon be available to consumers as nuggets made by Sanf-based startup Eat Just. Francisco and the first to be approved by the Singapore regulator.

Josh Tetrik, CEO of East Just, told Reuters he believed that the United States and other Western European countries would not be able to do so. Will begin to see this development in Singapore And will start to find a way to follow the example soon

According to NBC News, the lab produced chicken meat is It comes from muscle cells and animal fat. Grown in a petri dish until old enough To move in Bioreactor equipment Which is a container used to increase the number of microorganisms in a short time With essential nutrients contained within With an environment control system To be suitable for the growth of microorganisms

But because this innovation is still in the early stages. The cost price is therefore quite high.

For example A hamburger, made in a lab by a Holland startup in 2013, costs $ 280,000 a piece, according to NBC News.

For East Just products, the company confirmed that It doesn't have such a high price. But only With good quality chicken

News reports state that Since Singapore has the capacity to produce only 10 percent of the domestic demand. The success of chicken production in this lab It should be a very worthwhile investment in the long term.

Reuters reports that there are now more than 20 companies around the world accelerating the development of lab meat technology, while Barclays Bank estimates the industry could reach $ 140 million by 2029.
