Research Abstract |
Infection control is extremely important to prevent infection spread. Rapid bacterial examination in infection control enables early treatment of patients, reduction of medical costs and prevention of infection spread. Thus, the development of more rapid bacterial detection systems is urgently required. The principal Investigator focused on the specific bacteriophage(phage ; bacterial virus) structural proteins contributed to the bacteria-species-specific binding ability, and examined the applicability of the phage molecule to bacterial detection system. As a result, the phage tail molecule was revealed to be potentially used for the rapid bacteria detection system.
