High-throughput phenotypic testing is increasingly important for exploring the biology of bacteria, fungi, yeasts, and animal cell lines such as human cancer cells.Just as DNA microarrays and proteomic technologies have made it possible to assay the expression level of thousands of genes or proteins all a once, phenotype microarrays (PMs) make it possible to quantitatively measure thousands of ...
The Cell Painting assay [1] is a high-content, high-throughput imaging technique used to capture a wide array of cellular phenotypes in response to diverse perturbations. [2] These phenotypes, often termed "morphological profiles", can be used to understand various biological phenomena, including cellular responses to genetic changes, drug ...
Classical High throughput screening robotics are now being tied closer to cell biology, principally using technologies such as High-content screening.High throughput cell biology dictates methods that can take routine cell biology from low scale research to the speed and scale necessary to investigate complex systems, achieve high sample size, or efficiently screen through a collection.
High-content screening where changes in the expression of several proteins can be simultaneously monitored is also often used. [9] [10] High-content imaging of dye-labeled cellular components can also reveal effects of compounds on cell cultures in vitro, distinguishing the phenotypic effects of a broad variety of drugs.

High-throughput screening (HTS) is a method for scientific discovery especially used in drug discovery and relevant to the fields of biology, materials science [1] and chemistry. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Using robotics , data processing/control software, liquid handling devices, and sensitive detectors, high-throughput screening allows a researcher to ...
Unlike high-content analysis, high-content screening implies a level of throughput which is why the term "screening" differentiates HCS from HCA, which may be high in content but low in throughput. In high content screening, cells are first incubated with the substance and after a period of time, structures and molecular components of the cells ...
The development and application of bench-top chemoproteomics assays is often time consuming and cost-prohibitive. Molecular docking simulations have emerged as relatively low-cost, high-throughput means for ranking the strength of small molecule-protein interactions.
Perturb-seq can therefore combine the high throughput of forward genetics, in terms of the number of genetic perturbations, with the rich phenotype dimension of reverse genetics. [7] However, while a large and comprehensive amount of data can be a benefit, it can also present a major challenge.
