Peptidoglycan binding protein (PGBP)-modified magnetic nanobeads for efficient magnetic capturing of Staphylococcus aureus associated with sepsis in blood

Peptidoglycan-binding protein-modified magnetic nanobeads (PGBP-MNBs) were prepared for efficient magnetic capturing of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), which is associated with sepsis, using the binding affinity of PGBP for the peptidoglycan (PG) layer on S. aureus. These PGBP-MNBs can simply cap...

Sumario:Peptidoglycan-binding protein-modified magnetic nanobeads (PGBP-MNBs) were prepared for efficient magnetic capturing of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), which is associated with sepsis, using the binding affinity of PGBP for the peptidoglycan (PG) layer on S. aureus. These PGBP-MNBs can simply capture S. aureus in plasma within 1 hr or even 15 min. Importantly, they also can capture various types of Gram-positive bacteria, such as Bacillus cereus and methicillin-resistant and methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MRSA and MSSA). We believe that PGBP-based systems will be used to develop diagnostic systems for Gram-positive bacteria-related diseases.
