The introduction of the in vitro evolution method known as SELEX (systematic evolution of
ligands by exponential enrichment) more than 30 years ago led to the conception of …

Aptamers are short oligonucleotides isolated in vitro from randomized libraries that can bind
to specific molecules with high affinity, and offer a number of advantages relative to …

Detection of analytes by means of field-effect transistors bearing ligand-specific receptors is
fundamentally limited by the shielding created by the electrical double layer (the “Debye …

Aptamers are nucleic acid molecules that mimic antibodies by folding into complex 3D
shapes that bind to specific targets. Although some aptamers exist naturally as the ligand …

Aptamers are short single-stranded DNA or RNA oligonucleotides isolated from randomized
libraries, presenting high affinity and specificity toward targets with similar to antibodies …

Due to their relative synthetic and chemical simplicity compared to antibodies, aptamers
afford enhanced stability and functionality for the detection of environmental contaminants …

Aptamers are single-stranded DNA or RNA molecules capable of tightly binding to specific
targets. These functional nucleic acids are obtained by an in vitro Darwinian evolution …

Within the last decade, the application range of aptamers in biochemistry and medicine has
expanded rapidly. More than just a replacement for antibodies, these intrinsically structured …

Aptamers are single-stranded, synthetic oligonucleotides that fold into 3-dimensional
shapes capable of binding non-covalently with high affinity and specificity to a target …

The versatility of RNA in sensing and interacting with small molecules, proteins and other
nucleic acids while encoding genetic instructions for protein translation makes it a powerful …
