Advancement of Cell Culture Technologies Toward the Realization of Cultured Eel Meat
代表機関名 Kitasato University
採択年度 2025
フェーズ Phase 0
In this study, we aim to establish large‑scale culture technologies for Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) myoblasts and adipocytes, and to develop foundational technologies for the commercialization of cultured eel meat.
By combining stirred‑tank bioreactors with immobilized cell culture bioreactors, we will optimize cell proliferation and differentiation to achieve high‑density, large‑scale cell production.
In addition, to enhance food compatibility, we will conduct adaptation and validation studies of serum‑free (serum‑replacement) culture media, advancing the feasibility of safe and scalable food production.
