Virtual screening: a real screening complement to high-throughput screening.
نویسنده
چکیده
Virtual screening is being routinely used as an integral part of today's hit-identification strategies for, on one hand, prioritizing large corporate screening collections and, on the other hand, to extend the scope of screening to external databases. A brief description of the essential elements required for virtual screening and an application example to the identification of agonist hits for the oestrogen receptor subtype ER alpha are presented.

Nootropic Medicinal Plants; Evaluating Potent Formulation By Novelestic High throughput Pharmacological Screening (HTPS) Method
The principle of this method was to screen the pharmacological activity of six prepared polyphyto formulations by using high throughput screening method for their nootropic action. The study was performed in three stages using one, two and three animals, respectively in a group. Test formulations were given p.o daily at the dose of 50 and 100 mg/kg body weight. The test formulations were compar...
متن کاملVirtual high throughput screening (vHTS) - A perspective
With the exponential rise in the number of viable novel drug targets, computational methods are being increasingly applied to accelerate the drug discovery process. Virtual High Throughput Screening (vHTS) is one such established methodology to identify drug candidates from large collection of compound libraries. Although it complements the expensive and time consuming High Throughput Screening...
