ABSTRACT
Bacterial resistance caused by ß-lactamases has been a major threat to public health around the world, seriously weakening the efficacy of ß-lactam antibiotics, the most widely used therapeutic agents against infectious diseases. To detect the bacterial resistance to ß-lactam antibiotics, particularly specific type of ß-lactam antibiotics, in a rapid manner, we report herein a relay-response chemiluminescence assay. This assay mainly consists of two reagents a ß-lactam-caged thiophenol and a thiophenol-sensitive chemiluminescence reporter, both of which are synthetically feasible. The selective hydrolysis of ß-lactam by ß-lactamase leads to the releasing of free thiophenol, which then triggers the emission of a chemiluminescence signal in a relay manner. Three thiophenol-caged ß-lactams, structural analogues of cephalothin, cefotaxime, and meropenem, respectively, have been synthesized. And the application of this assay with these analogues of ß-lactam antibiotics allows fast detection of ß-lactamase-expressing resistant bacteria and, more impressively, provides detailed information on the resistant scope of bacteria.
