The present invention relates functional ligands to target molecules, particularly to functional nucleic acids and modifications thereof, and to methods for simultaneously generating, for example, numerous different functional biomolecules, particularly to methods for generating numerous different functional nucleic acids against multiple target molecules simultaneously. The present invention further relates to functional ligands which bind with affinity to target molecules. The present invention further relates to methods for generating, for example, functional biomolecules, particularly to functional nucleic acids, that bind with functional activity to another biomolecule, such as a receptor molecule. More than one or multiple targets as used herein may generally include different types of targets, and/or may also include a multitude of a singular type of targets at different conditions, such as, for example, temperature, pH, chemical environment, and/or any other appropriate conditions.
