The present application discloses nucleic acid aptamer based signaling polynucleotides (SPNs) that specifically bind an allergen protein. Provided in the present invention include aptamers, SPNs, SPN-complement complexes, magnetic particle conjugates, DNA printed glass slides and detection agents, and detection methods using the same for detecting the presence, or absence of an allergen protein in a food sample.
