Meat can be synthesized from human waste





Japanese scientists have proposed a fresh solution of the food problem of the growing population of the globe - they invented a way to synthesize the meat from human waste, the newspaper writes Digital Trends.

The inventor of the progressive ways of switching the person on closed loop became Mitsuyuki Ikeda, a researcher at the Laboratory of Okayama. He was approached by the company, serving the sewers of Tokyo, with a request to investigate whether it is possible to find some use of gigantic masses of precipitation that falls from chimneys shovel, collecting waste multimillion Japanese capital.

Examining the accumulated sewage sludge Ikeda found in him a high content of bacteria in sewage processing proteins. Highlighting protein and adding to them amplifier response, scientists got the desired result.

The "meat" contained 63% protein, 25% carbohydrate, 3% fat and 9% minerals. For a better resemblance to the meat product is added to the natural red colorant and flavor enhancer based on soy. The first volunteers who dared to try the result of the work of scientists, assert that to taste the product really looks like meat.

Found a Japanese way of solving the food problem has certain advantages, says the site Inhabitat: because now 18% of emissions of greenhouse, accounted for by the meat industry. In addition, cattle consume too many valuable resources, and gives the public an occasion to reflect on the cruelty to animals.

Shitburgery as they have provisionally called the Japanese, are able to solve all these problems. In addition, they contain fewer calories than traditional hamburgers. But as long as the question posed by the site Inhabitat, a willingness to try shitburgerov most readers will respond negatively.

Professor Ikeda understands the nature of this psychological barrier: it really is artificial meat literally synthesized from sewage. But scientists still do not lose hope, that in time there will be enough shitburgerov buyers who understand the benefits of such a non-waste production.
