1840 results about "Staphyloccocus aureus" patented technology

Staphylococcus aureus is a type of bacteria. It stains Gram positive and is non-moving small round shaped or non-motile cocci. It is found in grape-like (staphylo-) clusters. This is why it is called Staphylococcus. Staphylococcus is one of the five most common causes of infections after injury or surgery.

Identification of sortase gene

The present invention is a substantially purified sortase-transamidase enzyme from Gram-positive bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus. The enzyme having a molecular weight of about 23,539 or about 29,076 daltons and catalyzing a reaction that covalently cross-links the carboxyl terminus of a protein having a sorting signal to the peptidoglycan of a Gram-positive bacterium, the sorting signal having: (1) a motif of LPX3X4G therein; (2) a substantially hydrophobic domain of at least 31 amino acids carboxyl to the motif; and (3) a charged tail region with at least two positively charged residues carboxyl to the substantially hydrophobic domain, at least one of the two positively charged residues being arginine, the two positively charged residues being located at residues 31-33 from the motif, wherein X3 is any of the twenty naturally-occurring L-amino acids and X4 is selected from the group consisting of alanine, serine, and threonine, and wherein sorting occurs by cleavage between the fourth and fifth residues of the LPX3X4G motif. Variants of the enzyme, methods for cloning the gene encoding the enzyme and expressing the cloned gene, and methods of use of the enzyme, including for screening for antibiotics and for display of proteins or peptides on the surfaces of Gram-positive bacteria, are also disclosed.

Staphylococcal immunotherapeutics via donor selection and donor stimulation

A method and composition for the passive immunization of patients infected with or susceptible to infection from Staphylococcus bacteria such as S. aureus and S. epidermidis infection is provided that includes the selection or preparation of a donor plasma pool with high antibody titers to carefully selected Staphylococcus adhesins or MSCRAMMs, or fragments or components thereof, or sequences with substantial homology thereto. The donor plasma pool can be prepared by combining individual blood or blood component samples which have higher than normal titers of antibodies to one or more of the selected adhesins or other proteins that bind to extracellular matrix proteins, or by administering carefully selected proteins or peptides to a host to induce the expression of desired antibodies, and subsequently recovering the enhanced high titer serum or plasma pool from the treated host. In either case, the donor plasma pool is preferably purified and concentrated prior to intravenous introduction into the patient, and the present invention is advantageous in that a patient can be immunized against a wide variety of potentially dangerous staphylococcal infections. Kits for identifying potential donor with high titers of the selected adhesins are also provided. The present invention thus provides methods and compositions which can be highly effective against infections associated with Staphylococcus bacteria.

Clean effervescent tablet with pesticide residue and bacteria removing effects and preparation method of clean effervescent tablet

The invention relates to the technical field of daily chemical products and in particular to a clean effervescent tablet with pesticide residue and bacteria removing effects and a preparation method of the clean effervescent tablet. According to the preparation method disclosed by the invention, a specific surfactant is combined with a special wet granulation process, so that the feasibility of the production process is ensured. The clean effervescent tablet has the advantages that no dryness or stickness is caused; the adhesion of foam to the surface of a disintegrating agent can be inhibited, the disintegration speed is increased and an effervescent effect is quickly exerted; in the disintegration and dispersion process, the efficient alkaline supplementing effect on a solution system is realized by synergizing a bacteria remover with an alkali-source supplement, fruit wax and pesticide left on vegetables and fruits can be effectively removed, and the aims of effectively removing escherichia coli and staphylococcus aureus are achieved. By using the alkali-source supplement with a special structural form, metal ions in the water body and on the surface of the vegetables and the fruits can be effectively chelated, the effects of softening the water body and chelating the metal ions are realized, and the deposition of calcium scales on the surfaces of cleaned materials is prevented; in addition, a variety of calcium scales or stains are dispersed, so that secondary pollution to tableware, the fruits and the vegetables caused by deposition is prevented.

Novel Staphylococcus aureus phages and composition thereof, and applications of composition

The invention relates to the field of biology, particularly to novel Staphylococcus aureus phages and a composition thereof, and applications of the composition, and provides 4 Staphylococcus aureus phages such as Podoviridae sp .BP-13 with the preservation number of CCTCC NO:M2015142, Staphylococcus aureus phage BP-13A with the preservation number of CCTCC NO:M2016535, Podoviridae sp .BP-14 withthe preservation number of CCTCC NO:M2015143, and Podoviridae picovirinae Ahjdlikevirus BP-39 with the preservation number of CCTCC NO:M2015144. According to the present invention, the four phages arethe strict potent phages, can effectively kill various types of Staphylococcus aureus such as MRSA, MSSA, BORSA and the like, have wide host ranges, and have no toxic effect on normal microbial flora, and the DNA of the phages cannot encode virulence genes, such that the Staphylococcus aureus phages can be used for preventing or treating human and animal bacterial infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus, can provide excellent strain resources for the development of novel antibacterial preparations, and have good application development prospects; and the host range and the antibacterial efficiency of the cocktail mixture of the present invention are further greatly improved.
