New method to detect food borne pathogens by Asian News International There will be at least six presentations by independent scientists on the advantages of the company's unique and patented pressure cycling technology ("PCT") and/or its new PCT MicroTube Adapter Kit in mass spec studies. PRESSURE BIOSCIENCES TO DEBUT PCT MICROTUBE ADAPTER KIT by Biotech Equipment Update The company believes that the claims in the pending Battelle patent will build upon and broaden its own existing IP position in using pressure cycling technology ("PCT") to further enhance the quality and significantly decrease the processing time for protein analysis.
