| dc.description | Aptamers are short synthetic oligonucleotides that specifi cally bind to various molecular targets with high affi nity and
selectivity. Aptamers have found two main applications in bacteriology, diagnosis in various sensing applications and
riboswitches. Rickettsiosis are diseases caused by rickettsias ‘sensu lato’ including spotted fever, typhus, anaplasmosis,
ehrlichiosis, bartonellosis and Q fever. Traditional methodologies for the diagnosis of diseases associated with
rickettsias ‘sensu lato’ are based on serological testing, bacterial cultures and molecular assays. However, an increasing
number of novel technologies, including aptamer-based diagnostic sensors, are now on the horizon, opening up
possibilities for earlier diagnosis and more sensitive assays. Th is perspective looks at the contribution of aptamers to
rickettsias ‘sensu lato’ diagnosis, providing information on the ‘state of the art’ in this emerging field | |
