The present invention describes methods for the identification and production of nucleic acid ligands to a target molecule based on the SELEX process. The methods may be performed with modified nucleic acids, blended nucleic acids and with separate steps of contacting of the candidate mixture of nucleic acids with target and with nontarget molecules. Included in the invention are methods for the identification and preparation of nucleic acid ligands to thrombin, vascular endothelial growth factor, human neutrophil elastase, caffeine and theophylline and nucleic acid ligands to thrombin identified by the SELEX method.
