High throughput
screening (HTS) is a technology of screening and analyzing a large number of
biological or chemical compounds against specific targets. It is generally a
fully automated technology and involves instruments, consumables, and software
for screening and analysis of compound. The use of liquid handling devices,
robotics, and bioinformatics are important aspects of the HTS technology. It is
widely used by researchers for drug discovery and other research applications.
The high sensitivity, high speed, and easy to use supports the adoption of HTS
in research and drug discovery to identify enzymes, ligands for receptors,
ion-channels, or other pharmacological targets of interest. HTS is a crucial
step in drug discovery for various applications such as assay development,
target identification, and primary screening.
