Presentation given by Sonia Da Rochas from Novaptech, in the framework of the Emergence Forum Barcelona
Biocat organized the Barcelona Emergence Forum (April 10-11th, 2014, Congress Palace, Montjuïc) supported by the TRANSBIO SUDOE, a translational cooperation project dedicated to innovation in life sciences in South-West Europe. The Barcelona Emergence Forum contributed to bringing together Academics, Companies, Investment Entities, Technology Platforms and Technology Transfer Offices from Spain, France and Portugal to set up collaborative projects on Human Health & Agro-food Innovation.

3. Your needs,
looking for new molecular probe
DETECTION AND MONITORING
(molecular imaging,
biosensors, sandwich assay)
PURIFICATION
(affinity capture, sorting)
CHARACTERIZATION
(target validation,
protein-binding RNA sites)
INHIBITION
(drug delivery, drug discovery)REGULATION

Aptamers, the right solution
4. Aptamer properties,
Structured oligonucleotides identified:
from randomly synthesized library
against a target
through combinatorial strategy (SELEX)
iterative rounds of selection / amplification
(Tuerk and Gold,1990; Ellington and Szostak, 1990)
High affinity and specificity
Rival antibodies
Chemical synthesis
Chemically modified and
conjugated to numerous pending
groups (fluorophore,
radioelements, biotin..)
