    摘要: Reactive and sorbent materials including a non-encapsulated crosslinked biological material immobilized on a support matrix that includes a polyamine and at least one support material are described. The support material can be an inorganic or organic support material. The reactive and sorbent materials are formed by reacting the biological material with the polyamine, at least one support material, and a crosslinking agent. The materials exhibit enhanced properties generally, are capable of maintaining their reactive and sorbent properties in contact with digestive fluids, and exhibiting their reactive and sorbent properties as they pass throughout an organism's entire digestive system. Reactive and sorbent materials in contact with digestive juices at pH's ranging from about 3 to about 7 have maintained their reactive and sorbent properties for at least 4 hours.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to yeast biocatalysts and methods of using yeast biocatalysts for detoxifying a biowarfare agent. In some embodiments, a yeast biocatalyst may include a nucleic acid encoding a phage lysin operably linked to a prepro leader sequence, an expression control sequence operably linked to the nucleic acid, and a bioeffective amount (e.g., enough to detoxify) of the phage lysin. A yeast biocatalyst may include an engineered strain of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A phage lysin may be selected from the group consisting of PlyG and PlyPH. A method of detoxifying a biowarfare agent may include contacting a biowarfare agent with a yeast biocatalyst under conditions that permit detoxification. Conditions that permit detoxification, according to some embodiments, may include conditions that permit expression and secretion of a phage lysin. In some embodiments, conditions that permit detoxification may include conditions that permit germination of a spore. For example, a method of detoxifying a biowarfare agent spore may include contacting the spore with growth media (e.g., complete media or complex media) having alanine.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to compositions, methods, systems and kits for the detection of microorganisms of the Yersinia species including Yersinia pestis. The disclosure relates to recombinant phage operable to infect a Yersinia microorganism, the phage comprising a detectable reporter. Detection systems of the disclosure may comprise a phage operable to infect a Yersinia microorganism, and may comprise a reporter nucleic acid expressible upon infection of a Yersinia microorganism by the phage. The system may be operable to detect the expression of the reporter. A detectable reporter may comprise any gene having bioluminescent, colorimetric and/or visual detectability. For example, a detectable reporter may comprise one or more luxAB genes detectable by emission, enhancement and/or change in spectrum of bioluminescent light. Live and infectious Yersinia microbes may be detected by the compositions, methods, systems and kits described herein.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a biological detection system and method. One detection system may include a genetically engineered phage that expresses a surface molecule able to bind a target molecule; a bacterium susceptible to infection by the phage; and a detection component able to determine whether the bacterium has been infected by the phage. Infection of a bacterium by a phage may be indicative of phage binding to the target molecule. One method may include placing a sample suspected of containing the target molecule with a binder; adding a genetically engineered phage having reporter genetic material and able to bind the target molecule; washing away unbound phage; releasing phage bound to the target molecule; infecting a bacterium with the released phage; and detecting the presence of any reporter genetic material in the bacterium. Reporter material in the bacterium may correlate with target molecule in the sample.

    摘要: The present disclosure, according to some embodiments, relates to phage-based biological detection systems, compositions, and methods. In some embodiments, it relates to a detection system and method using phage binding and bacterial infection to detect the presence of a target molecule (e.g., a toxin). One detection system may include a genetically engineered phage that expresses a surface molecule able to bind a target molecule and/or target microorganism; a bacterium susceptible to infection by the phage; and a detection component able to determine whether the bacterium has been infected by the phage. Infection of a bacterium by a phage may be indicative of phage binding to the target molecule and/or target microorganism. One method may include placing a sample suspected of containing the target molecule and/or target microorganism with a binder; adding a genetically engineered phage having reporter genetic material and able to bind the target molecule and/or target microorganism; washing away unbound phage; releasing phage bound to the target molecule and/or target microorganism; infecting a bacterium with the released phage; and detecting the presence of any reporter genetic material in the bacterium. Reporter material in the bacterium may correlate with target molecule and/or target microorganism in the sample. In some embodiments, the disclosure relates to a detection system and method using phage comprising a reporter to infect a microorganism (e.g., Bacillus anthracis), wherein the reporter is selectively (e.g., only) detectable upon phage infection.

    摘要: A preparation of a self-supporting or free-standing three-dimensional unitary structural body (32) by a method including generating successively a plurality of cross-sectional layers of the body, one layer on top of the other and with the layers joined together to form the body and with the generating of a cross-sectional layer comprising placing a plurality of drops (27) of a liquid composition containing a first reactant in a pattern of discrete drops making up the cross-sectional layer (25). A plurality of discrete drops of another liquid composition containing another reactant is subsequently applied in contact with the placed drops of the pattern so that the first reactant and the other reactant react to form a solid.
