Abstract
This review discusses successful strategies and potential pitfalls to assembling a natural product-based library suitable for high-throughput screening. Specific extraction methods for plants, microorganisms, and marine invertebrates are detailed, along with methods for generating a fractionated sub-library. The best methods to store, maintain and prepare the library for screening are addressed, as well as recommendations on how to develop a robust high-throughput assay. Finally, the logistics of moving from an assay hit to pure bioactive compound are discussed. Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.Mesh:
