Abstract
Since aptamers were first reported in the early 2000s, research on their use for the detection of health-relevant analytical targets has exploded. This review article provides a brief overview of the most recent developments in the field of aptamer-based biosensors for global health applications. The review provides a description of general aptasensing principles and follows up with examples of recent reports of diagnostics-related applications. These applications include detection of proteins and small molecules, circulating cancer cells, whole-cell pathogens, extracellular vesicles, and tissue diagnostics. The review also discusses the main challenges that this growing technology faces in the quest of bringing these new devices from the laboratory to the market.
期刊介绍：
Since 1999, the Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering has been capturing major advancements in the expansive realm of biomedical engineering. Encompassing biomechanics, biomaterials, computational genomics and proteomics, tissue engineering, biomonitoring, healthcare engineering, drug delivery, bioelectrical engineering, biochemical engineering, and biomedical imaging, the journal remains a vital resource. The current volume has transitioned from gated to open access through Annual Reviews' Subscribe to Open program, with all articles published under a CC BY license.
