Introduction of High-Content Screening (HCS)
High-content screening (HCS) is a powerful technology used in drug discovery and biological research. HCS is crucial for identifying promising drug candidates, elucidating mechanisms of action, and assessing toxicity, allowing researchers to analyze complex cellular phenotypes and measure multiple parameters simultaneously. This approach provides a deeper understanding of cellular responses to drugs, disease states, and other perturbations. The technique combines automated microscopy, advanced image analysis, and sophisticated software to extract meaningful information from cells.
