Barocycler® 2320EXT
Pressure Cycling Technology (PCT) is a unique, patented technology platform based on repeated cycles of hydrostatic pressure between ambient (14.7 psi) and ultra-high 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.
