Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is the top ordinary pathogen causing epidemic and food poisoning. The authentication of S. aureus has great significance for pathologic diagnosis and food hygiene supervision. Various biosensor methods have been established for identification. This paper reviews the research progress of aptasensors for S. aureus detection, focusing on the classification of aptamer technologies, including optical aptasensors and electrochemical aptasensors. Furthermore, the feasibility and future challenges of S. aureus detection for aptamer assays are discussed. Combining aptasensors with nanomaterials appears to be the developing trend in aptasensors.
