First hamburger made from lab-grown meat to be served at press conference
Dr Mark Post aims to prove that growing meat in labs could reduce the impact of livestock production on the environment
Over the weekend, scientists at Dr Mark Post's laboratory in Maastricht University made their final preparations for an event they hope will change the way we see food. On Monday, Dr Post will cook the world's most expensive hamburger, made from meat grown in Petri dishes in his lab.
Starting with stem cells extracted from a biopsy of a cow, Post's team grew 20,000 muscle fibres over the course of three months. Each tiny, hoop-like fibre grew in an individual culture well, suspended in a gel-like growth medium.
When they were ready, the fibres were removed individually by hand, cut open and straightened out. All the fibres were pressed together to form the hamburger – biologically identical to beef but grown in a lab rather than in a field as part of a cow. The total cost so far of the project has been €250,000.

Lo de las armas de destrucción masiva baratas es el punto que veo más preocupante, pero todo lo demás irá a mejor, y los rollos del calentamiento global y todo eso ni me preocupan. En 200 años todo limpio, higiénico y potito.
JODER NO PUEDO DECIRLO QUE HAY SPOILERS
