P. fluorescens is a metabolically versatile organism, allowing for high throughput screening and rapid development of complex proteins.

When such high throughput screening is applied in nutrition research, it allows the examination of how nutrients affect the thousands of genes present in the human genome.

Automation: high throughput screening, LIMS, robotics.

It covers scientific and technical applications and advances in areas such as lab automation and robotics, virtual screening, and high throughput screening.

This property permits evaluation of intracellular protein interactions for use in high throughput screening of drug candidates for their effect on specific cellular pathways.

For this reason high throughput screening (HTS) of small molecular libraries could be the answer to finding a better remedy.

It is typically used as a secondary screening technique in high throughput screening.

Automatic colony pickers pick thousands of microbial colonies for high throughput genetic screening.

The term uHTS or ultra high throughput screening refers (circa 2008) to screening in excess of 100,000 compounds per day.

Other methods, such as virtual high throughput screening, where screening is done using computer-generated models and attempting to "dock" virtual libraries to a target, are also often used.
