Abstrakt: A need for meat is rising day by day and the production of poultry, cows, pigs and fisheries is reduced as there is no good commercial production. Wider livestock production is becoming unavailable on a global scale in requisites of welfare of animals, ecological sustenance and human health conditions. Choices for cultured meat are being explored using innovative techniques like stem cells, embryonic stem cells, Induced pluri potent stem cells [(iPSC) derived from skin or blood cells of an animal that have been reprogrammed back into an embryonic-like pluripotent], Totipotent stem cells [immature cells capable of giving rise to any cell type or (of a blastomere) a complete embryo], pluripotent stem cells (immature cells capable of giving rise to several different cell types), satellite cells or myoblasts, etc. In these methods, animal tissue is grown in a controlled surroundings using culture cell technology. Several attempts are made to develop different types of media and techniques like the self-organizing techniques and scaffold-based techniques to advance the growth of the cell. Cultured meat is also called in various names like 'clean meat', 'in-vitro meat', or 'artificial meat'. The concept is in the budding stage of commercialization. Therefore, along with the improvement in technical phase there is a lot of work is being carried on in the developmental aspects of biological, commercial, social, economic and ethical.
