01 Feb 2023 --- Singapore has hit another cultivated meat milestone by approving Good Meat’s use of serum-free media to produce lab-grown chicken for human consumption. The Singapore Food Agency’s (SFA) approval advances the country’s trailblazing support for cell-based meat and leaves the US and Europe playing catch up on the regulatory front. Good Meat – a division of US food tech firm Eat Just – recognizes its serum media-free cultivated chicken and the SFA’s market approval as a technical and regulatory breakthrough that will boost the scalability of its products and lower manufacturing costs.The technology also helps decouple cell-cultured meat from its reliance on fetal bovine serum for products that are “truly slaughter-free.”
