alt Hacker NewsI'm skeptical of the "magic noodles" bit as mentioned in the article.
The "tokoroten" noodles are just agar.
Pretty much everyone in biology tries growing cells in agar, right? Surely that can't have been an amazing discovery?

I've had cells growing fine in 20 L Cytiva wave bags and then fail to grow in 20 L Sartorius wave bags. Anyone that tells you they know how a cell grows is lying to themselves :)
Maybe there is something else in Gelidium amansii that it needs, if the tokoroten was produced in the traditional way?
