Cultured Meat and Future Food PodcastAniekan Esenam of HamiltonIn this Future Food Show episode, host Alex Shirazi interviews Aniekan Esenam of Hamilton. Aniekan shares his background in mathematics, AI, and bioprocessing, highlighting Hamilton’s role in cultivated meat and precision fermentation. He explains how Hamilton’s sensors monitor pH, oxygen, CO2, and cell density in bioreactors, optimizing production. They discuss single-use vs. reusable systems, AI’s role in bioprocessing, and the future of novel foods. Aniekan envisions a future where 60% of meat comes from novel sources by 2040.2025-02-1831 min
Protein Production Technology PodcastEP11: Automating Production for Novel FoodsThe field of novel foods is an exciting market but moving from lab to industrial scale can be challenging. A particular challenge novel foods producers face is the sheer number of ingredients required when compared to conventional proteins, such as binders, stabilizers and other ingredients that affect texture and taste yet are necessary to make plant-based proteins taste like meat. Automation not only increases the scalability and affordability of these novel foods but also enhances food safety and quality control. Additionally, it reduces the reliance on human labor in potentially hazardous conditions. As the global population continues to grow...2023-12-061h 00
