Abstract
Nucleic acid aptamers are oligonucleotide sequences screened by an in vitro methodology called Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment (SELEX). Known as "chemical antibodies", aptamers can achieve specific recognition towards the targets through conformational changes with high affinity, and possess multiple attractive features including, but not limited to, easy and inexpensive to prepare by chemical synthesis, relatively stable and low batch-to-batch variability, easy modification and signal amplification, and low immunogenicity. Now, aptamers are attracting researchers' attentions from more than 25 disciplines, and have showed great potential for application and economic benefits in disease diagnosis, environmental detection, food security, drug delivery and discovery. Although some aptamers exist naturally as the ligand-binding elements of riboswitches, SELEX is a recognized method for aptamers screening. After thirty-two years of development, a series of SELEX methods have been investigated and developed, as well as have shown unique advantages to improve sequence performances or to explore screening mechanisms. This review would mainly focus on the novel or improved SELEX methods that are available in the past five years. Firstly, we present a clear overview of the aptamer's history, features, and SELEX development. Then, we highlight the specific examples to emphasize the recent progress of SELEX methods in terms of carrier materials, technical improvements, real sample-improved screening, post-SELEX and other methods, as well as their respects of screening strategies, implementation features, screening parameters. Finally, we discuss the remaining challenges that have the potential to hinder the success of SELEX and aptamers in practical applications, and provide the suggestions and future directions for developing more convenient, efficient, and stable SELEX methods in the future.

Abstract
The paper describes the development of a novel DNA oligonucleotide-based affinity bioreceptor that binds to lactoferrin, a glycoprotein-type immunomodulator. The research was performed using surface plasmon resonance method to investigate affinity of various types of oligonucleotides to the target protein. The 72 base pair-long 5'[(TAGAGGATCAAA)AAA]4TAGAGGATCAAA3' sequence with the highest affinity to lactoferrin was selected for further investigations. Kinetic analysis of the interaction between selected DNA and lactoferrin provided rate and equilibrium constants: ka = (2.49 ± 0.03)∙104 M-1∙s-1, kd = (1.89 ± 0.02)∙10-3 s-1, KA = (0.13 ± 0.05)∙108 M-1, and KD = (7.61 ± 0.18)∙10-8 M. Thermodynamic study conducted to determine the ΔH0, ΔS0, and ΔG0 for van't Hoff characteristic in the temperature range of 291.15-305.15 K, revealed the complex formation as endothermic and entropically driven. The chosen DNA sequence's selectivity towards lactoferrin was confirmed with interferents' response constituting <3 % of the response to lactoferrin. SPR analysis justified utility of the designed DNA oligonucleotide for Lf determination, with LOD of 4.42∙10-9 M. Finally, the interaction between lactoferrin and DNA was confirmed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, providing the basis for further quantitative assay of lactoferrin using the developed DNA-based bioreceptor. The interactions were performed under immobilized DNA ligand conditions, thus reflecting the sensor's surface, which facilitates their transfer to other label-free biosensor technologies.

Abstract
The ATP-binding cassette, subfamily G, isoform 2 protein (ABCG2), as an important member of ABC transporters, plays a key role in multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer and has been widely considered as a marker of cancer stem cells (CSC). Reagents capable of simultaneously targeting ABCG2 and reversing MDR have great clinical application values, but their development is highly challenging. Herein, ABCG2 glycosylated extracellular region-binding aptamers were efficiently screened by a cladded molecularly imprinted polymer (cMIP)-based in vitro screening method and further rationally engineered into cyclic bivalent aptamers. Experiments showed that both the monovalent and cyclic bivalent aptamers could specifically bind ABCG2 and thereby specially target CSC of human colorectal carcinomas (CoCSC), while the latter could effectively reverse MDR in drug-resistant liver cancer cells (HepG2/ADR). Different from currently predominant small molecule inhibitors, the reversal of MDR relied on a different mechanism; the cyclic bivalent aptamers bound the two monomers of ABCG2 dimers simultaneously and thereby blocked the ABCG2-mediated drug-pumping channel, resulting in increased intracellular accumulation of substrate drugs. This study opened a new access to the development of affinity reagents for targeting CSC and reversing MDR, holding great prospects in cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
As an important kind of environmental endocrine disruptors, 17 β -Estradiol (E2) plays a major role in affecting the growth of human including sexual characters, pregnancy system, etc. In the modern society, with the threat of abuse in breeding, it is imperative to design sensitive methods for detecting low concentration of E2 in environment. In this work, we constructed a highly sensitive and simple fluorescent aptasenor for detecting E2 via amplification of hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Through the competitions between complementary strand (cmDNA) and E2 to E2 aptamer modified on magnetic beads, the unbound cmDNA would be collected and captured by polystyrene microspheres to induce HCR which brought abundant biotin sites. Subsequently, benefit from the excellent catalytic performance of streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase (SA-HRP), the highly sensitive fluorescence signals could be obtained in low concentration of E2. Under the optimal conditions, the prospered method for E2 detection was shown a good liner range from 1 to 100 pg/mL, with the lower detecting limit of 0.2 pg/mL compared with previous work. In addition, the recovery rates tested in the real samples of milk and water were 99.20%-108.06% and 91.07%-106.13%. In all, the assay may provide a perspective way for highly sensitive detection for various contaminants in the real samples.

Abstract
Whey and its components are recognized as value-added ingredients in infant formulas, beverages, sports nutritious foods, and other food products. Whey offers opportunities for the food industrial sector to develop functional foods with potential health benefits due to its unique physiological and functional attributes. Despite all the above importance, the consumption of whey protein (WP) can trigger hypersensitive reactions and is a constant threat for sensitive individuals. Although avoiding such food products is the most successful approach, there is still a chance of incorrect labeling and cross-contamination during food processing. As whey allergens in food products are cross-reactive, the phenomenon of homologous milk proteins of various species may escalate to a more serious problem. In this review, nonthermal processing technologies used to prevent and eliminate WP allergies are presented and discussed in detail. These processing technologies can either enhance or mitigate the impact of potential allergenicity. Therefore, the development of highly precise analytical technologies to detect and quantify the existence of whey allergens is of considerable importance. The present review is an attempt to cover all the updated approaches used for the detection of whey allergens in processed food products. Immunological and DNA-based assays are generally used for detecting allergenic proteins in processed food products. In addition, mass spectrometry is also employed as a preliminary technique for detection. We also highlighted the latest improvements in allergen detection toward biosensing strategies particularly immunosensors and aptasensors.

Abstract
Cell-based aptamer selection (Cell-SELEX) against predefined protein targets that benefits using the native form of the targets is the most promising approach to achieve aptamer probes capable of recognizing targets under both in vitro and in vivo conditions. The major disadvantages in Cell-SELEX are the imperfectness of the negative selection step and the lengthy procedure of selection. Here, we introduced the Counter-SELEX as part of our modified Cell-SELEX and implemented deep sequencing to overcome these shortcomings in developing aptamers against aspartate β-hydroxylase (ASPH) as a known tumor marker. In parallel with the conventional Cell-SELEX, five consecutive cycles of counter selection were accomplished using sequences bound to negative cells (the Counter-SELEX) to detect oligos that are not specific for ASPH. After high-throughput sequencing, the representative of each promising achieved family was subjected to further confirmatory analysis via flow cytometry, followed by the fluorescence immunostaining of histopathological sections. Implementing our innovative complementary method, annoying mis-selected sequences in Cell-SELEX enriched pools were effectively identified and removed. According to the affinity assay on the cells displaying ASPH, three aptamers, AP-Cell 1, AP-Cell 2, and AP-Cell 3, with K d values of 47.51, 39.38, and 65.23 nM, respectively, were obtained, while AP-Cell 1 and 3 could then successfully spot ASPH displayed on the tissues. Our study showed that the Counter-SELEX could be considered as a complementary method for Cell-SELEX to overcome the imperfectness of the negative selection step. Moreover, high-throughput nucleotide sequencing could help to shorten the overall process.

Abstract
As an active glycoprotein with high nutritional value, lactoferrin is widely used in food and medical treatment. Therefore, it is very important to establish an accurate and efficient detection method for lactoferrin. At present, the detection of lactoferrin in milk faces many challenges, such as low separation degree and poor parallelism. To address this issue, we developed an aptamer affinity column (AAC) for purification and enrichment of lactoferrin in milk. The column was prepared by covalent conjugation of an amino-modified aptamer with NHS-activated Sepharose. The washing buffer type (0.01 mol/L phosphate buffer) and volume (10 mL) and the sodium chlorideconcentration (1 mol/L) in the elution buffer were optimized for the AAC method. The performance of the AAC was then evaluated in terms of the column capacity, specificity, stability, and reusability. The column capacity was 500 ± 13.7 μg and the column could be reused up to ten times with a large loss in performance. The AAC method combined with high-performance liquid chromatography gave excellent linearity over a wide range, good sensitivity with a limit of detection of 3 μg/mL, and acceptable recoveries for different concentrations of lactoferrin spiked in real raw milk samples from cattle. Finally, the AAC was successfully applied to analyze lactoferrin in milk. This method could be applied to routine analysis of samples for lactoferrin in testing laboratories and dairy factories.

Abstract
Among prevalent food allergies, cow milk allergy (CMA) is most common and may persist throughout the life. The allergic individuals are exposed to a constant threat due to milk proteins' presence in uncounted food products like yogurt, cheese, and bakery items. The problem can be more severe due to cross-reactivity of the milk allergens in the food products due to homologous milk proteins of diverse species. This problem can be overcome by proper and reliable food labeling in order to ensure the life quality of allergic persons. Therefore, highly sensitive and accurate analytical techniques should be developed to detect the food allergens. Here, significant research advances in biosensors (specifically immunosensors and aptasensors) are reviewed for detection of the milk allergens. Different allergic proteins of cow milk are described here along with the analytical standard methods for their detection. Additionally, the commercial status of biosensors is also discussed in comparison to conventional techniques like enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The development of novel biosensing mechanisms/kits for milk allergens detection is imperative from the perspective of enforcement of labeling regulations and directives keeping in view the sensitive individuals.

Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis-based systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (CE-SELEX) is a high-efficient technique for aptamers selection, and has been evolved into many modes. In this study, we obtained the aptamer against bovine lactoferrin (BLF) with high affinity (dissociation constant, Kd = 20.74 ± 6.89 nM) and good specificity (>1000 folds) using single step CE-SELEX (ssCE-SELEX) mode. In the selection process, ssCE demonstrated high-efficiency selection with bulk Kd reaching at 0.19 ± 0.04 μM by only two rounds, as compared to capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) mode with Kd of 0.39 ± 0.03 μM. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed by two methods of high output (Hiseq) and medium output (Miseq) with different sequencing depths, and their same results of high-frequency sequences confirmed the reliability of the obtained sequences. Through affinity analysis, the primer region and single base mutation (SBM) were observed to affect the sequence structure and to result in affinity change. Besides, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was performed to validate the binding affinity of the candidates with BLF by analyzing binding sites, interaction forces, and binding free energy. Moreover, BLF detection in milk powder matrices was completed successfully with the optimized CE-aptasensor. The signal response was in a good linear relationship (R2 = 0.9930) with 4-128 nM of BLF and the detection limit was 1 nM. The obtained results of BLF in four milk powder samples were in an acceptable agreement with the labeled concentrations. This study presented a completed CE based process including aptamers selection, affinity characterization, and detection application, which also validated the high-efficiency selection of ssCE-SELEX mode.
