A cross the pharmaceutical industry, there are a variety of approaches to laboratory automation for high throughput screening
The Handbook of Industrial Eng ineering de® nes industrial engineering as the ® eldconcerned with the design, improvement and installation of integrated systems of people, materials, equipment and energy.’. This description is certainly applicable to the discipline that has become known as High Throughput Screening (HTS)
Operation analysis has involved stratifying assays according to their complexity, throughput, assay type and unit operation (® gure 1)
Summary
This requires knowledge of the process. Assay speci® c improvements will have short term impact.
