Working with industrial partners in the DIAGONAL project, Vireo conducted a detailed nanomaterial life-cycle risk analysis (Nano LCRA) for a graphene-enabled functional fabric used in personal protective equipment. We are delighted to announce that this study has been published in NanoImpact. Using this unique link, you can read it without sign-up, registration or fees until January 25, 2024.

Food Safety of Fermented Proteins and Cultivated Meat and Seafood, written by Kimberly J. Ong, Fiona Case and Jo Anne Shatkin from Vireo Advisors, chapter 6 in Cellular Agriculture Technology, Society, Sustainability and Science published by Elsevier, reviews potential hazards specific to the manufacture and consumption of fermented proteins and cultivated meat and seafood….

Bene Meat Technologies announced that their cultured meat had been included on the EU Feed Material Register specifically for use in cat and dog food. This is great news, but there is an important distinction between EU approval process for feed materials and feed additives, and obtaining EU approval for human consumption of cultured meat will be a much more significant challenge.

We are pleased to announce Vireo is part of a significant new project to assess the safety of serum free media components and standardize testing for the cultivated meat and seafood industry to accelerate innovation.

Among the many terms used to imply the sustainability of products, the term ‘biobased’ has real meaning.
