A research lab at the University of Caen Normandy (France) has succeeded in making cartilage using decellularized apples.
The Bioconnect laboratory at the university, which I head, has just published a scientific paper in the Journal of Biological Engineering. In this original study, we used apples that had been “decellularized” (their cells removed) as a material, combined with human stem cells, to rebuild cartilage outside of the body, in laboratory Petri dishes.
