体外培育肉的生产经常引起媒体关注，因为乍一看它可以在为人类提供食物的同时保护环境和尊重动物。然而，大多数专家认为，要生产体外培育肉仍有许多技术障碍需要克服。此外，即使体外培育肉能够消除家畜所谓的福利缺失问题，并有可能腾出可耕地，但其他一些所谓的优势是值得怀疑的，而且科学界对此也并非总是意见一致。然而，体外培育肉商业化的另一个主要问题将是消费者的接受程度，即使有些消费者愿意至少品尝一次。特别是，该产品的人造性质与许多国家对天然产品日益增长的需求相悖。体外培育肉的消费将取决于个人或集体层面的价值观冲突。现实情况是，已经存在一系列其他补充性解决方案，它们能够应对我们社会中的食物供应挑战，但对媒体的吸引力较小。（C）2016爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
The production of in vitro meat regularly generates media interest because of the contribution it could, at first glance, make to the issue of feeding humankind while also protecting the environment and respecting animals. However, the majority of experts considers that there are still numerous technological obstacles that have to be overcome to produce in vitro meat. In addition, even if in vitro meat could eliminate the supposed latk of wellbeing of livestock and has the potential to free up cultivable land, other supposed advantages are questionable and not always agreed upon by the scientific community. However, another major problem for the commercialisation of in vitro meat would be its acceptance by consumers, even if some consumers are ready to taste it at least once. In particular, the artificial nature of the product goes against the growing demand for natural products in many countries. The consumption of in vitro meat will depend on a conflict of values at an individual or collective level. The reality is that a range of other complementary solutions already exist which meet the challenges of food supply in our society, but which are less saleable to the media. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.
