| abstract |
The present disclosure generally relates, in certain aspects, to cultivated meat and other cultivated animal-derived products. In some embodiments, the whole blood of a non-human animal is separated into various components (e.g., concentrated red blood cells, blood plasma, etc.). Some embodiments are generally directed toward incorporating coloring or "redness" into a product. For example, colorants may be added to a cultivated meat product to improve its color. The colorant may comprise a lysate of non-human red blood cells, e.g., containing hemoglobin. In some embodiments, the lysate may be obtained from blood withdrawn from living animal donors. Other embodiments yet are generally directed toward the composition and method of use of the lysate, cultivated meat products, kits involving these, or the like. |
