Abstract
The present invention provides an Influenza A H1N1 subtype-specific aptamer. The aptamer was selected in vitro using SELEX and a microfluidic chip system. The aptamer is stable, establishing sensitivity about 100 times higher than antibody and high specificity to Influenza A H1N1 subtype. Thus, the aptamer can be effective in detection of H1N1 influenza virus.
