Detection of chloramphenicol using a novel apta-sensing platform based on aptamer terminal-lock in milk samples.

In this paper, a novel apta-sensing colorimetric platform for rapid detection of chloramphenicol (CAP) in raw milk was developed. The AuNPs are stabilized by short-sequences aptamers against salt induced aggregation and this is the base of most colorimetric aptasensors development. However, the statute shows low sensitivity for the long-sequence aptamers.
