PCT (Pressure Cycling Technology), a rapid sample pre-treatment method for micro-scale number of samples, is of high robustness. It is a patented technology platform based on repeated cycles of hydrostatic pressure between ambient (14.69 PSI) and ultra-high (45,000 PSI) levels. These rapid changes in pressure are used to control biomolecular interactions for applications such as accelerated proteolytic digestion, and improved extraction of cellular components, including proteins and lipids.

The PCT-HD Sample Preparation System is a proven PCT-based workflow for processing small tissue samples for proteomic and other applications. PCT-HD combines efficient, hands-off tissue homogenization and protein extraction with pressure-enhanced digestion, for rapid, efficient and reproducible generation of peptides for MS analysis. This unique workflow combines two of PBI’s innovative sample preparation tools: the Barocycler 2320EXT and our patented PCT MicroPestles. PCT-HD and the Barocycler 2320EXT can provide unprecedented speed and reproducibility for biomarker discovery, yielding peptides ready for clean-up and MS within 2-4 hours from the start of tissue processing.

The Barocycler 2320EXT is a compact, bench top instrument that can process up to 16 samples simultaneously using PCT MicroTubes. Features that come standard with the 2320EXT include: data input and output options to accommodate validation and quality control; computer-operated control with touch screen programming and automatic data logging; and the ability to control multiple pressure cycling parameters, such as the rate of pressure increase/decrease, both the high and low pressure levels, and the shape of the pressure profile (e.g., sine wave, square wave, and others). In addition, the 2320EXT is available with a choice of two different methods for temperature control (an external circulating waterbath for heating and cooling, or a built-in electric heater).

1. Computer-operated control with Touch Screen Interface

2. Pressure Range: ambient - 45,000psi (310 MPa)

3. Choice of temperature control - heating/cooling or heating only

4. Max Temperature: 95˚C

5. Min Temperature: 4˚C with circulating waterbath, ambient with electric heating

6. Chamber capacity: up to 16 samples in MicroTubes

7. Easily accessible USB port on front panel

8. Air pressure: >0.8 Mpa. Input air pressure can be provided by an air compressor, house air or nitrogen lines, air or nitrogen tanks.

9. Pressure medium: Distilled Water
