Introduction to High-throughput Screening (HTS)

High-throughput screening, commonly referred to as HTS, is a cutting-edge technique at the forefront of synthetic biology research. HTS is an automated and rapid method for testing a large number of biological or chemical entities in parallel, enabling scientists to efficiently identify novel compounds, enzymes, or genetic constructs with desired properties. This high-capacity screening approach has revolutionized the field of synthetic biology by accelerating the development of new drugs, biofuels, enzymes, and more.

HTS has its roots in pharmaceutical research, where it was initially employed to identify potential drug candidates from vast compound libraries. Over time, this technology found applications in diverse fields, including synthetic biology. The current trend in HTS research focuses on enhancing throughput, precision, and data analysis methods. In synthetic biology, HTS is increasingly being used to optimize metabolic pathways, discover new biomolecules, and engineer organisms for specific applications.
