Abstract
Differential sensing (DS) methods traditionally use spatially arrayed receptors and optical signals to create score plots from multivariate data which classify individual analytes or complex mixtures. Herein, a new approach is described, in which nucleic acid sequences and sequence counts are used as the multivariate data without the necessity of a spatial array. To demonstrate this approach to DS, previously selected aptamers, identified from the literature, were used as semi-specific receptors, Next-Gen DNA sequencing was used to generate data, and cell line differentiation was the test-bed application. The study of a principal component analysis loading plot revealed cross-reactivity between the aptamers. The technique generates high-dimensionality score plots, and should be applicable to any mixture of complex and subtly different analytes for which nucleic acid-based receptors exist.

Abstract
Since aptamers were reported in 1990, research into the applications of aptamers, particularly diagnostic applications, has been growing. Aptamers can act as recognition elements instead of antibodies. In this regard, aptamers have unique characteristics because they are composed of nucleic acids. Intra- and intermolecular interactions of nucleic acids can be easily tailored following straightforward hybridization rules. Nucleic acids can be enzymatically replicated and their sequences can be determined using high-throughput methods. Using these properties, ligand-induced structural change-based aptamer sensors for homogeneous assays, polymerase- and/or nuclease-combined aptamer sensors for ultrasensitive assays, and microarray/next-generation sequencing-based aptamer sensors for multiplexed assays have been developed. This article reviews these unique aptamer sensors, demonstrating their great potential for diagnostic applications.

Abstract
The unabated progress in next-generation sequencing technologies is fostering a wave of new genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics and proteomics technologies. These sequencing-based technologies are increasingly being targeted to individual cells, which will allow many new and longstanding questions to be addressed. For example, single-cell genomics will help to uncover cell lineage relationships; single-cell transcriptomics will supplant the coarse notion of marker-based cell types; and single-cell epigenomics and proteomics will allow the functional states of individual cells to be analysed. These technologies will become integrated within a decade or so, enabling high-throughput, multi-dimensional analyses of individual cells that will produce detailed knowledge of the cell lineage trees of higher organisms, including humans. Such studies will have important implications for both basic biological research and medicine.

Abstract
Major advancements in molecular biology and clinical diagnostics cannot be brought about strictly through the use of genomics based methods. Improved methods for protein detection and proteomic screening are an absolute necessity to complement to wealth of information offered by novel, high-throughput sequencing technologies. Only then will it be possible to advance insights into clinical processes and to characterize the importance of specific protein biomarkers for disease detection or the realization of "personalized medicine". Currently however, large-scale proteomic information is still not as easily obtained as its genomic counterpart, mainly because traditional antibody-based technologies struggle to meet the stringent sensitivity and throughput requirements that are required whereas mass-spectrometry based methods might be burdened by significant costs involved. However, recent years have seen the development of new biodetection strategies linking nucleic acids with existing antibody technology or replacing antibodies with oligonucleotide recognition elements altogether. These advancements have unlocked many new strategies to lower detection limits and dramatically increase throughput of protein detection assays. In this review, an overview of these new strategies will be given.

Abstract
Affinity probe capillary electrophoresis (APCE) is potentially one of the most versatile technologies for protein diagnostics, offering an excellent balance between robustness, analysis speed and sensitivity. Combining the immunosensing and separating strength of capillary electrophoresis with the signal enhancement power of nucleic acid amplification, aptamers can further push the analytical limits of APCE to offer ultrasensitive, multiplexed detection of protein biomarkers, even when differences in electrophoretic mobility between the different aptamer-target complexes are limited. It is demonstrated how, through careful selection of experimental parameters, simultaneous detection of picomolar levels of three target proteins can be achieved even with aptamers that were initially selected under very different conditions and further taking into account that the aptamers need to be modified to allow successful PCR amplification. Aptamer-enhanced APCE offers limits of detection that are orders of magnitude lower than those that can be achieved through traditional capillary electrophoresis-based immunosensing. With recent developments in aptamer selection that for the first time realise the promise of aptamers as easily accessible, high affinity recognition molecules, it can therefore be envisioned that aptamer-enhanced APCE on parallel microfluidic platforms can be the basis for a truly high-throughput multiplexed proteomics platform, rivalling genetic screening for the first time.

Abstract
Aptamers represent an important class of synthetic protein binders useful for proteome-wide applications. The identification and characterisation of such molecules have been greatly facilitated by the development of Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Amplification (SELEX). Since then numerous advances and alternatives to improve efficient aptamer discovery have been reported. In the present manuscript we discuss the recent advances performed around the SELEX approach that may help to expand the availability of new aptamers and the subsequent applications that may be developed.

Abstract
Nonequilibrium capillary electrophoresis of equilibrium mixtures (NECEEM) is a kinetic affinity method with both analytical and preparative applications. NECEEM requires that the dissociation of the complexes be negligible in its first phase and the recombination of the dissociated complexes be negligible in its second phase. Here, we introduce a method, which facilitates easy examination of whether or not these requirements are satisfied. We derived expressions for two parameters, termed the slow-dissociation parameter (SDP) and slow-recombination parameter (SRP), which can be used to assess the assumptions. Both parameters should be much less than 1 for the assumptions to be satisfied. We calculated the two parameters for new and previously published NECEEM experiments and found that the assumptions were satisfied in all of them. Finally, we discuss changes to NECEEM conditions that should be done if the assumptions are found not to be satisfied. The SDP/SRP assessment helps to easily validate the results of NECEEM-based analyses and thus makes the NECEEM method more robust.

Abstract
Methods of kinetic capillary electrophoresis (KCE) facilitate highly efficient selection of DNA aptamers for protein targets. The inability to detect native proteins at low concentrations in capillary electrophoresis creates, however, a significant obstacle for many important protein targets. Here we suggest that protein labeling with new Chromeo dyes can help to overcome this obstacle. By labeling a number of proteins with Chromeo P503, we show that the labeling procedure enables accurate detection of proteins in CE without significantly affecting their electrophoretic mobility or their ability to bind DNA. Moreover, Chromeo P503 does not appear to label the amino-groups of buffer components to a significant extent, making the labeling procedure compatible with a large number of selection and run buffers. Fluorescent labeling of protein targets with Chromeo dyes empowers selection of aptamers by KCE methods and promises to increase the rate at which aptamers for new targets are being developed and introduced in various applications.
