| 20110250202 | REAGENTS, METHODS, AND SYSTEMS FOR DETECTING METHICILLIN-RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS - The present invention provides PBP2a peptide antigens for generating antibodies against MRSA, and provides high-affinity binding agents that detect MRSA by selective immunoreactivity with PBP2a. The antibodies are useful in methods and systems for detecting MRSA, including biosensor systems, or as components of diagnostic or detection kits. The antibodies, in some embodiments, have therapeutic value against MRSA infection. | 10-13-2011 |
