Description
High Throughput Screening (HTS) is a technique that has already had an enormous impact on drug discovery and design. This book provides a thorough grounding in the subject for those both within and outside the pharmaceutical industry. Current practices, techniques and equipment are described in detail by an expert team of industry-based authors spearheaded by an editor from one of the world's leading companies. In addition to covering the state-of-the-art as it now exists, Dr Murray's team also look forward to the predictable (near) future technologies and describe the drivers leading to HTS.
