Abstract
D&MD's High Content Screening (HCS): An Industry Analysis is focused on an emerging and key segment of the life science tools and technology space-high content analysis. High content biology has various ramifications in life science research, academic research, drug discovery, and development. This report focuses on this emerging space, the major technologies and products, and its market landscape through both a qualitative and quantitative analysis. In addition to describing the technical aspects of high-content screening (HCS) in this report, we present a thorough market analysis complemented by primary data from a proprietary survey conducted on this topic by D&MD.
HCS and secondary screening are an outgrowth of high-throughput screening that have commanded much attention and resources in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies over the past decade. Currently, the challenge has moved towards analyses of sub-cellular organization, morphology, and these are major facets of HCS.
