A fluorescently labelled ubiquicidin peptide enables bacterial detection in human lung tissue in vitro. The in situ immediate detection of the presence of bacteria in the distal human lung is of significant clinical utility. Herein we describe the development and optimization of a bacterial binding fragment (UBI29–41) of the antimicrobial peptide, ubiquicidin (UBI), conjugated to an environmentally sensitive fluorophore to enable rapid live bacterial imaging within human lung tissue. UBI29–41 was modified for stability in the presence of human lung bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, for affinity to bacterial membranes and functionality in human lung tissue. The optimized cyclic structure yields an optical molecular Smartprobe for bacterial detection in human lung tissue.
