An Aptamer-Based Biosensor for the Azole Class of Antifungal Drugs

ABSTRACT This technical report describes the development of an aptamer for sensing azole antifungal drugs during therapeutic drug monitoring. Modified synthetic evolution of ligands through exponential enrichment (SELEX) was used to discover a DNA aptamer recognizing azole class antifungal drugs. Th...
