DEVELOPMENT OF NOVEL AND SUSTAINABLE CELL-CULTIVATED FOODS THROUGH ADDITIVE BIOMANUFACTURING

Objective

The overall goal of this project is to optimize the production parameters, sustainability, and economic feasibility of microbial-based 3D bioprinted structured food products with enhanced oxidative stability. We propose the following objectives:Objective 1: Optimize bioink formulations and 3D printing parameters utilizing proteinaceous and oleaginous filamentous fungi, microalgae and feruloylated arabinoxylans (derived from Kentucky Distillers' Spent Grains).Objective 2: Evaluate the textural characteristics of the 3D bioprinted products.Objective 3: Assess lipid and color stability of the 3D bioprinted products.Objective 4: Perform technoeconomic analysis and life cycle assessment to estimate the economic costs and environmental impacts of implementing the food processing system.
