An impedance aptasensor with microfluidic chips for specific detection of H5N1 avian influenza virus.
Sensors,
15
:
18565–18578.
Use of a DNA aptamer to replace monoclonal antibodies in an impedance biosensor that uses microfluidics and a microelectrode for detection of the target molecule, in this case, the H5N1 subtype of avian influenza virus. Aptamer secondary structures and delta G were calculated using the free IDT online UNAFold and OligoAnalyzer programs. Biotinylated aptamers were synthesized by IDT with biotin conjugated at the 5′ end.

PET imaging of tenascin-C with a radiolabeled single-strand DNA aptamer.
J Nucl Med,
56
:
616–621.
Development of the first agent for imaging and quantifying the cancer associated protein, tenascin-C—a tenascin-C-specific single-stranded DNA aptamer. The aptamer was radiolabeled with 18F and 64Cu and used in PET-imaging studies to measure tumor uptake and metabolism. All aptamers, including FITC-aptamers, were synthesized by IDT.
