High-throughput screening (HTS) has become an integral part of early stage drug discovery. This article looks at the use of the latest in vitro 3D cell and tissue culture model systems in HTS. We also highlight some of the bottlenecks and attempt a look into our crystal ball to identify…
Image-based high-content screening (HCS) is a high-throughput screening (HTS) technology that combines automated fluorescence microscopy from microtiter plates with digital image analysis. This effectively allows phenotypic screening with sufficient throughput to interrogate large compound libraries...
HTS can be carried out in a number of formats, ranging from simple biochemical (target-based) to whole animal screening assay formats. Horst Flotow, from Hit Discovery Constance, discusses the benefits and practicalities of, and recent progress in, whole animal screening. Madhu Lal-Nag, National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, and Anton…
