Oncology drug discovery applications using the FMAT 8100 HTS system.

High-throughput screening (HTS) for potential anticancer agents requires a broad portfolio of assay platforms that may include kinase enzyme assays, protein-protein binding assays, and functional cell-based apoptosis assays. The authors have explored the use of fluorometric microvolume assay technology (the FMAT 8100 HTS System) in three distinct homogeneous HTS assays: (1). a Src tyrosine kinase enzyme assay, (2).
