Berthold Technologies’ new bScreen label-free µArray reader was selected among the top 3 most innovative products at the Forum LABO Biotech exhibition in Paris.
The bScreen was honored due to its unique technology that helps to increase productivity in the laboratory.
The jury highlighted the high throughput capabilities of the bScreen that come without compromises in the measurement performance in terms of sensitivity and information accessible.
This way, the bScreen closes the gap between µArray formats and label-free approaches.

High-Throughput ScreeningHigh-throughput screening (HTS) is an automated drug discovery technique for identification of active compounds against a compound library. Use HTS readers and integrated assay preparation / analysis workstations to screen your compounds. Identify active compounds against various HTS libraries, including membranes, proteins and peptides and HTS cell lines. Find the best high-throughput screening products in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.High ThroughputHigh throughput experiments allow the simultaneous processing of several samples. This parallelization reduces the cost per experiment and increases reproducibility and output volume of data.Lead OptimizationLead optimization is a phase in the drug discovery process. A lead is a compound that has demonstrated desired biological effects on a target. Optimization involves making chemical modifications to the structure in order to generate analogues of the original compound, which have higher potency and safety profiles.
