The Nutrition of Breastmilk, the Practicality of Formula
The Nutrition of Breastmilk, the Practicality of Formula
Biomilq is developing new technologies to culture breast milk outside of the body, using human mother cells to create a custom product. Its bioreactor grows these cells to produce milk as they would in the human body, resulting in sterile milk that ships in shelf-stable, pre-portioned containers directly to the customer’s door. The company’s cultured breast milk is intended to offer families a more nutritious and more sustainable option for feeding babies than current dairy-based infant supplements.
