Phenotypic Screening
Phenotypic Screening: is a type of screening that is used in biological research and drug discovery which is utilized to identify substances like molecules, peptides for RNAi that can change the phenotype of a cell or an organism. Phenotypic screening has been highly employed in the discovery of new drugs.
