High-throughput screening

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-005302

A method for rapidly testing a large number of chemical or biological samples for a specific activity or property. This technique employs automation and miniaturization to analyze thousands to millions of compounds in a short period. It is widely used in drug discovery to identify potential lead compounds.
