Abstract:
A self-assembled multilayer (SAMu) including the alginate layer was prepared for detecting Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells in a solution and its potential was evaluated with a BIAcore system. After layer-by-layer formation, the refractive units (RU) values monitored with the biosensor increased by the interaction between the layers. The responses by the binding of P. aeruginosa cells to the alginate-immobilized SAMu were visualized immediately upon injection of the cell suspension. The RU values after injection of the cells were measured with approximately 1152, 656 and 173 for 1x10(9), 1x10(8) and 1x10(7)CFU/ml. This result suggests that the alginate-immobilized SAMu will have useful application for detecting P. aeruginosa cells in a biosensor analysis.
