Base Pair’s natural DNA aptamers were selected against the Chikungunya virus E1 envelope protein in mosquito saliva. Aptamer ATW0102 and ATW0103 both tested positive for recognition of the Chikungunya E1 envelope protein in dot blot testing. Aptamer ATW0102 has also been shown to bind the E1 envelope protein in serum and defibrinated blood in a self-sandwich microfluidic assay (1).
