Pressure BioSciences, Inc. (PBIO) is “One to Watch”
Pressure BioSciences (PBIO) is focused on developing products based on its proprietary pressure cycling technology (PCT) for life-sciences applications. The innovative technology utilizes hydrostatic pressure, which cycles between ambient and ultra-high levels, to rapidly and proficiently disrupt cell membranes/tissues to remove nucleic acids, proteins, and small molecules from plant and animal materials. The PCT technology has a broad range of possible applications in genomics and proteomics, in addition to drug discovery, pathogen inactivation, food safety, immunodiagnostics, and DNA sequencing. Currently, the PCT System consists of a top-of-the-line instrument and disposable PULSE sample processing tubes. Pressure BioSciences plans to develop other…
