MissionIRNewsBreaks – Pressure BioSciences Inc.’s (PBIO) PCT Platform Identified as Pivotal for Cancer Biomarker Discovery and Potential Use in Clinical Diagnostics


Pressure BioSciences Inc. (OTCQB: PBIO), a leader in the development and sale of broadly enabling, pressure-based technology and products to the worldwide life sciences and other industries, today announced the publication of two scientific journal articles led by independent teams of scientists in China and Australia. Per the update, the articles reported excellent results with PBI’s Pressure Cycling Technology (“PCT”) platform in processing preserved formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (“FFPE”) and fresh frozen biopsy tissue samples for discovery and elucidation of cancer biomarkers, as well as potential use in clinical diagnostics based upon these markers. “It is estimated (Nature volume 448, pages 959–962, 23 August 2007) that well over one billion archival FFPE tissue samples exist in pathology and other laboratories worldwide. We believe there are millions of new FFPE tissue samples processed and stored each year,” Pressure BioSciences President and CEO Richard T. Schumacher said in the news release. “These samples offer the promise of unveiling invaluable information that can lead to the development of new treatments, cures, and preventive measures for cancer and many other diseases. However, up to now, it has been very difficult to extract this information from biomolecules in FFPE samples.”

About Pressure BioSciences Inc.

Pressure BioSciences, Inc. (OTCQB: PBIO) is a leader in the development and sale of innovative, broadly enabling, pressure-based solutions for the worldwide life sciences industry. The company’s products are based on the unique properties of both constant (i.e., static) and alternating (i.e., pressure cycling technology, or “PCT”) hydrostatic pressure.

PBIO’s primary focus is in the development of PCT-based products for biomarker and target discovery, drug design and development, biotherapeutics characterization and quality control, soil & plant biology, forensics, and counter-bioterror applications. Additionally, major new market opportunities have emerged in the use of its pressure-based technologies in the following areas: (1) the use of its recently acquired PreEMT technology from BaroFold, Inc. to allow entry into the biologics contract research services sector, and (2) the use of its recently-patented, scalable, high-efficiency, pressure-based Ultra Shear Technology (“UST”) platform to (i) create stable nanoemulsions of otherwise immiscible fluids (e.g., oils and water) and to (ii) prepare higher quality, homogenized, extended shelf-life or room temperature stable low-acid liquid foods that cannot be effectively preserved using existing non-thermal technologies.

Earth Science Tech Inc.’s (ETST) CBD Oil is Unique in the Industry


  • Earth Science Tech is looking to expand its line of work through two wholly owned subsidiaries
  • Its subsidiaries focus on R&D and product development
  • The company recently outlined a five-year marketing and manufacturing plan
Earth Science Tech Inc. (OTCQB: ETST) is an aspiring biotech company engaged in the development of cannabinoid-based products and the research and development of medical devices and pharmaceuticals. Using the supercritical CO2 liquid extraction, isolation and micron filtration process, the company manufactures 100 percent natural CBD oil. This pure, easily digested, rich CBD hemp oil is unique to the nutraceuticals industry and represents a significant asset to ETST.

Earth Science Tech is currently looking to expand its operations in the areas of CBD product development and R&D of medical devices and pharmaceuticals through its two wholly owned subsidiaries: Earth Science Pharma Inc. and Cannabis Therapeutics Inc.

Earth Science Pharma Inc. is focused on the research and development of low-cost medical devices and vaccines that benefit women’s health. The company recently introduced its first medical device, MSN-2, a home kit designed for the detection of STIs such as chlamydia. The company has named this kit Hygee. By circumventing the need for laboratory analysis, ETST anticipates that the kit will empower women across the world, giving them a low-cost, noninvasive method to meet their diagnostic health care needs (http://ibn.fm/HROu1).

Aside from Earth Science Pharma’s innovations in the diagnostic health care space, ETST has another subsidiary operating in the burgeoning cannabis industry. Cannabis Therapeutics Inc. is committed to the research and development of medicinal cannabidiol. The company also possesses a provisional application patent for a CBD product that can be used for developing medications to treat breast and ovarian cancers.

ETST recently filed a 10-K annual report with the SEC that included an outline of the company’s five-year expansion plan for manufacturing and marketing its CBD products (http://ibn.fm/JY9mT). The plan includes information about the company’s strategic preparations to scale up the production of its CBD oil, introduce new products and make its innovative hemp products available worldwide (http://ibn.fm/5OZ0R).

Earth Science Tech has teamed up with the University of Central Oklahoma to conduct research and development projects. In addition, studies from the DV Biologics Laboratory scientifically support and advance the health care benefits of the company’s high-grade hemp CBD oil. These studies show positive results regarding breast cancer and immune cells to support that ETST’s CBD oil formulation lowers cortisol and functions as a neuro-protectant, with positive-result case studies conducted through key health organizations.

“Our CBD-rich hemp oil does not contain any synthetic cannabinoids and is not an isolate,” the SEC report noted. “It contains everything that is naturally occurring in the original industrial hemp plant. With our high-quality, CBD-rich hemp oil you benefit from the natural interaction of phytonutrients in their balanced wide-ranging form that may offer the most benefit for overall wellness.” The report further noted that the company’s “commercialized, CBD-based product line, High-Grade Full Spectrum Cannabinoids, offers seven distinct cannabinoids maximizing all the therapeutic benefits the industrial hemp plant has to offer.”

Through the innovative products offered by its two wholly owned subsidiaries, ETST is well-positioned to stay abreast of current trends in multiple markets.

MissionIRNewsBreaks – The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) and Caliper Foods Report Positive Results from Proprietary Water-Soluble Cannabinoid Technology Study

Cannabis-focused research and development company The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF), a leading producer of premium certified organic cannabis, and Caliper Foods (formerly Stillwater Foods), a best-in-class provider of water-soluble cannabinoid products, today announced the results of a preliminary human pharmacokinetic (“PK”) study . The PK study was conducted on Caliper CBD, Caliper Foods’ proprietary tasteless and odorless powder that is water soluble and can be added to almost any food or beverage. Early data shows that Caliper CBD demonstrated a 4.5-fold higher observed total bioavailability and faster onset with higher concentrations achieved, both at 15 minutes, compared to maximum concentration achieved at 45 minutes with a CBD in oil formulation. “We are delighted with these PK results as they confirm the enhanced bioavailability and consistent absorption rates of our proprietary ingredient technology, which can infuse both CBD and THC. This study confirms that consumers absorb 4.5 times more CBD with Caliper CBD than with CBD in MCT oil,” Caliper Foods Director of R&D Keith Woelfel said in the news release. “Our R&D team is working closely with TGOD on the next phase of the clinical study, which, if it confirms the PK results in additional product forms, will make Caliper Foods’ and TGOD’s product suites highly differentiated in terms of substantiated quality.”
