AbstractProtein specific aptamers are highly applicable affinity ligands in different fields of research and clinical applications. They have been developed against various targets, in particular, bio-macromolecules such as proteins. Among human proteins, the coagulation factors are the most attractive targets for aptamer selection and their specific aptamers have valuable characteristics in therapeutic and analytical applications. In this study, a plasma derived coagulation factor VIII was considered as the protein target for DNA aptamer selection using size exclusion chromatography-SELEX. Potential aptameric oligonucleotides with high affinity and specificity were achieved during eight rounds of selection. Binding affinity constant of selected aptamer and aptameric enriched pool were in nanomolar range that was comparable to monoclonal antibodies. Further improvement studies can result in aptamers that are more promising as an industrial affinity ligand for the purification of anti-hemophilia factor from plasma source.en
