A feeding trial shows that BeneMeat’s cultivated hamster meat is well-accepted and digested by cats, who leave significantly fewer scraps than when they eat conventional chicken.
A complete feline diet containing cultivated meat from BeneMeat has shown strong acceptance and adequate digestibility in domestic cats, according to a peer-reviewed study published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science.
A peer-reviewed study published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science has found that domestic cats accepted a diet containing cultivated hamster cell biomass at least as well as one based on conventional chicken breast, with the cultivated meat diet actually generating fewer leftovers despite containing significantly less palatability enhancer.
Die Aufforderung der Europäischen Kommission zur Einreichung von Stellungnahmen zu ihrem Entwurf für das Biotech-Gesetz II hat Reaktionen aus den Bereichen alternative Proteine und industrielle Biotechnologie hervorgerufen. Im Vorfeld der Frist am 10. Juni forderten Unternehmen klarere Regulierungswege für fermentierte Inhaltsstoffe, kultivierte Biomasse und Präzisionsfermentation.
Research published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science by Ghent University and BeneMeat found that a complete diet containing cultivated meat was well accepted and showed good digestibility in domestic cats, highlighting its potential as a novel pet food ingredient.
The European Commission’s call for evidence on its proposed Biotech Act II has drawn responses from across the alternative protein and industrial biotech sectors, with companies urging clearer regulatory pathways for fermentation-derived ingredients, cultivated biomass, and precision fermentation ahead of the June 10 deadline.
FORZA10 and BeneMeat have unveiled the world’s first complete cultivated meat dog food at Interzoo 2026. The launch is being regarded as a significant step forward for alternative protein innovation and sustainable pet nutrition in Europe.
PRAGUE — More than sixty researchers from around the world gathered in Prague from 7 to 10 May 2026 for Prague Protein Spring 2026 (PPS 2026), one of Europe’s most prominent meetings in protein science. This year’s edition, themed “Protein Science in the Post-AlphaFold Era: New Challenges – New Paradigms”, was opened by the 2024 Nobel laureate in Chemistry David Baker, who delivered the keynote lecture on computational protein design.
From PFAS-free packaging to lab-grown dog treats, the pet industry event in Nuremberg showcased how environmental and economic realities are shaping the market.
In Italy, pet food brand FORZA10 has launched a wet dog food containing cultivated meat from Czech company BeneMeat. Dubbed Coolty Meat, the food was launched at Interzoo 2026 and is the first such food available in Europe. According to FORZA10, BeneMeat’s meat, which is cultivated from hamster cells, makes up 26% of the Coolty Meat. Hamster meat was chosen because of its amino acid profile and low allergenic potential.
