Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a high-speed in vitro screening method for any library selected from the group consisting of a cDNA display library and a nucleic acid aptamer library. This high-speed in vitro screening method involves: (i) a step for preparing positive spherical structures formed by immobilizing a target molecule on a spherical structure and negative spherical structures having no target molecules immobilized thereon; (ii) a step in which a target detection molecule, selected from the aforementioned library having a library size of greater than or equal to 1010, is bonded on each spherical structure to obtain spherical conjugates; (iii) a step in which the spherical conjugates are sorted into positive spherical conjugates and negative spherical conjugates with a cell sorter; (v) a step for supplying the nucleic acid on the surface of the sorted spherical conjugates for PCR; (vi) and a repetition step for repeating steps (i) to (v) above using DNA obtained by PCR.
