Perspective on Research and Application of Nucleic Acid Aptamers in Environment Toxicology / 环境与健康杂志

Nucleic acid aptamers are ligands with high specificity and affinity for their targets,which are screened from large oligonucleotide pools by the SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment,SELEX) technology. For their specific character,they have shown the great applicative prospects in the environment toxicology and related research fields. The recent related researches were reviewed in the present paper.
