  • Publication number: 20240093153
    Abstract: A method for meat production by in vitro cell culture includes isolating tissue from an animal or plant source and making a cell suspension of cells, and growing the cells into a solid or semi-solid structure that mimics an animal organ by growing the cells on a food grade scaffold in a culture medium. Expression of one or more proteins in the growing cells may be increased by altering a level of one or more micro RNAs that regulate expression of the protein. Additionally, the growing cells may be co-cultured with bioengineered cells that secrete growth factors and cytokines that support the growth of the cells in situ. The co-culturing technique reduces or eliminates the need for animal-derived fetal bovine serum in the culture medium.

  • Publication number: 20240093284
    Abstract: A method for quantifying cells embedded in a scaffold, comprising the steps of (a) a lysing step to cause the cells to lyse using alkali or proteinase; (b) a purification step comprising centrifugation or a series of elution; and (c) a quantification step comprising the steps of (i) simultaneously carrying out probe-based qPCR on a sample reaction mix and a plurality of reference reaction mixes; (ii) collecting the signals from the probe-based qPCR products from the sample reaction mix and reference reaction mix; (iii) creating a standard curve based on the collected signals from the reference reaction mixes; and (iv) deducing the number of cells in the sample through the standard curve.

  • Publication number: 20220298480
    Abstract: A method for meat production by in vitro cell culture includes isolating tissue from an animal or plant source and making a cell suspension of cells, and growing the cells into a solid or semi-solid structure that mimics an animal organ by growing the cells on a food-grade scaffold in a culture medium. Culture medium comprising growth factor of (i) genetically same or similar species to the cells and/or (ii) genetically same genus to the cells is used. Expression of one or more proteins in the growing cells may be increased by altering a level of one or more micro RNAs that regulate expression of the protein. Additionally, the growing cells may be co-cultured with bioengineered cells that secrete growth factors and cytokines that support the growth of the cells in situ. The co-culturing technique reduces or eliminates the need for animal-derived fetal bovine serum in the culture medium.

  • Patent number: 9262120
    Abstract: Techniques for providing a graphical user interface for an audio channel include receiving data that indicates multiple audio contents for audio presentation at a first node. A graphical user interface is formed, which displays a time sequence of the plurality of audio contents for presentation, and which associates with each audio content one or more selectable operations on the audio content. Presentation of the graphical user interface is caused at a second node. In response to causing presentation of the graphical user interface, data is received that indicates an associated operation on audio content based on input from the second node.

  • Publication number: 20120066140
    Abstract: An approach is provided for monitoring adherence to prescribed regimens. A social service platform receives an input for specifying a schedule associated with a user. Next, the social service platform determines to create at least one social network group, the members of the social network group including, at least in part, the user and one or more other users. Then, the social service platform determines to establish one or more communication sessions among devices corresponding to at least some of the members based, at least in part, on the schedule.
