TLDR 3D scaffolds are crucial for making lab-grown meat taste and feel like real meat.
The document discusses the recent progress in developing three-dimensional scaffolds for cultured meat production, highlighting the need for these scaffolds to organize muscle stem cells in a way that mimics natural animal tissue. This organization is crucial for achieving a texture and taste similar to traditional meat. The paper reviews various scaffold technologies and biomaterials that have been developed to support the 3D cultivation of muscle stem cells, addressing the challenges and advancements in this field to create a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional meat.
