About PCT

Get Started With Plant Cell Technology

PCT Began With The Pet-Plant (1993)

In the transformative year of 1993, our visionary founder embarked on a journey that would redefine childhood wonder. The innovative “Pet Plant” emerged—a dynamic, interactive toy allowing children to witness the magic of live plant growth. Despite its resounding success, we encountered a formidable challenge: contamination. Undeterred, we set out on a mission to conquer this obstacle, laying the groundwork for our enduring commitment to innovation and excellence.

PPM™ Solution Born (1998)

Fueled by an unwavering belief in the transformative power of our work, we dedicated ourselves to resolving the contamination puzzle. The result? The birth of Plant Cell PPM™ in 1998—an all-encompassing solution that revolutionized the industry. This chapter in our story reflects not just a scientific breakthrough but a testament to our resilience, collaborative spirit, and commitment to pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

Digital Expansion and Masterclasses (2019-2022)

With new leadership at the helm and recognizing a gap in available digital resources, PCT ventured into the digital realm in 2019. Our goal was to fill the void with rich, accessible content on plant tissue culture. Leveraging YouTube, we began sharing knowledge globally, inspiring a new wave of scientists. This digital success laid the groundwork for our Tissue Culture Master Classes launched in 2022. With 15+ masterclasses to date, led by industry experts, we’ve broadened educational horizons and democratized high-level scientific learning, making the nuances of plant tissue culture accessible to all.

Expanding Horizons in Plant Tissue Culture

PCT’s dedication to excellence is evident in products and educational efforts. We introduced the market’s most cost-effective and user-friendly Bioreactor, the BioCoupler™, alongside pioneering Tissue Culture Master Classes, digital webinars, consulting services, lab buildouts, and R&D. Our goal is clear: to make cutting-edge advancements accessible to both professionals and enthusiasts. Through these initiatives, PCT fosters a knowledgeable, collaborative scientific community, continually pushing the boundaries of plant tissue culture.
