However, as with most fields, missing or unclear information presented in the publication makes it difficult to replicate some of the work described in the literature. To increase the reproducibility of the data and facilitate academic laboratories and industrial companies to develop reliable aptamer work, essential guidelines should be proposed and followed in any aptamer publication, especially in those that highlight de novo aptamer sequences. Here, we provide suggestions for authors, reviewers, and editors to follow when performing and reporting their aptamer work to ensure that we meet the minimum standards for publication of future aptamer sequences.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalArticlehttp://japtamers.co.uk/the-minimum-aptamer-publication-standards-maps-guidelines-for-de-novo-aptamer-selection/
