Evotec uses the Opera™ confocal cell imaging device to identify and characterize active compounds in novel, information-rich, cell-based assays.
Benefits of Evotec’s high content screening offering:
- Opera™offers the highest available resolution through confocal technology with four laser sources and a throughput of up to 200,000 images per day
- Ability to carry out cell-based assays for targets that are typically screened enzymatically (e.g. kinases) and thus identify hits in a cellular context earlier
- The ability to undertake pathway and phenotypic screening will help identify novel chemical matter for intractable targets
- The readout multiplexing capabilities facilitated by the Opera™ reader assists in reducing false positives, false negatives and provides information on multiple targets and cellular events
- The platform is compatible with the use of primary and stem cells
