Monogram Biosciences' PhenoScreen™ is a phenotypic screening assay designed to
evaluate the activity of reverse transcriptase (RT), integrase, or entry
inhibitors in a high throughput fashion. At this time it is not possible to
evaluate Protease Inhibitor compounds with PhenoScreen. This assay is an
economical way to screen many compounds (typically greater than 25) against a
small panel of well-characterized library viruses. The virus panel, which is
selected based on client's requirements, consists of 5 to 20 viruses and is
used repeatedly for all compounds tested. The reported data consist of IC50 and
Fold Change values compared to a wild-type reference HIV-1 virus and
susceptibility curves for each drug/virus combination.
