Depending on Client needs, the project may be tailored to meet certain milestone objectives such as:

  • High Affinity (Kd) AND High Specificity; eliminate (false-positive) cross-reactivity.
  • Wide dynamic range between positive and negative samples (LOD)
  • Activation (EC50) or inhibition (IC50) against a target enzyme
  • Identification of unknown and unique biomarkers in serum, blood, or tissue samples
  • Cell or tissue-targeting for drug delivery
  • Convert an already existing aptamer into an apta-beaconโ„ข to detect analytes free in solution (see Apta-Beaconsโ„ข)

The target sample(s) do not have to be pure; crude target sample(s) are acceptable.

>>Phase I: Library Enrichment – SELEX (1-2 months)

>>Phase II: Polyclonal Sequencing & Bioinformatic Analysis (2-3 weeks)

>>Phase III: High-throughput Screen of Monoclonal Candidates (2-3 weeks)

>>Phase IV: Candidate Synthesis & Qualitative Assessment (1-4 weeks)

>>Phase V: Quantitative Assessment of Affinity & Specificity (1 month)

>>Phase VI (Optional): Optimization & Assay Development (1-2 months)

Thank you for contacting Aptagen regarding your aptamer development needs. We can develop aptamers against your target(s) of interest.
