This new range of reagents leverages PerkinElmer’s experience in cellular imaging and high-content screening and operates alongside the business’s microplates, automation, software and industry-leading high-content screening instruments. With this entire screening workflow, researchers can better understand disease and create more pinpointed therapies and drugs to treat them.
Cell painting is a strong program of high-content screening technology that combines cell and computational biology to study the effects of perturbagens like chemical compounds, genes or drugs on the behavior of cells. Cells are”painted” by labelling cellular compartments with distinct fluorescent bioprobes to allow those areas to be quantitatively profiled. However, preparing reagents from scratch can be incredibly time consuming.

“Researchers are using high-content screening and cell painting to make extraordinary discoveries that will help drive more innovative drugs and therapies,” said Alan Fletcher, Vice President and GM of Life Sciences, PerkinElmer. “With the addition of our new PhenoVue™ cellular imaging reagents, we now offer a complete suite of high-content screening products and expert services. This will help researchers build more streamlined workflows and enjoy the convenience of working with a single, expert technology provider helping to accelerate discovery.”
