Staphylococcus aureus is one of the major pathogens causing and spreading hospital acquired infections. Since it is highly resistant to new generation antibiotics, novel strategies have to be developed such as the construction of biofunctionalized non-adherent surfaces that will prevent its tethering and subsequent spread in the hospital environment. In this frame, the domain D of protein A (SpAD) of S. aureus has been immobilized onto cellulose acetate scaffolds by using the streptavidin/biotin interaction, in order to study its interaction with the A1 domain of von Willebrand factor (vWF A1), a protein essential for hemostasis, found in human plasma. Subsequently, the biofunctionalized cellulose acetate scaffolds were incubated with S. aureus in the presence and absence of vWF A1 at different time periods and their potential to inhibit S. aureus growth was studied with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The SpAD biofunctionalized scaffolds perceptibly ameliorated the non-adherent properties of the material, and in particular, the interaction between SpAD and vWF A1 effectively inhibited the growth of S. aureus. Thus, the exhibition of significant non-adherent properties of scaffolds addresses their potential use for covering medical equipment, implants, and stents.
