Abstract

This data descriptor presents a curated dataset for pathogen detection and identification (Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans) directly from whole-blood samples. The dataset was created using differential cell lysis combined with rapid extraction, digestion, and mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Our method offers a rapid diagnostic alternative to traditional culture, enabling timely disease management, such as sepsis. Highlighting our dataset's uniqueness, it features a three-tier structure: Spectral Libraries of Pathogens for identifying peptide peaks for putative biomarkers; Spiked pathogen in blood MS data for biomarker panel optimization through varied concentration samples; and Parallel Reaction Monitoring (PRM) data from sepsis patients for validating our biomarker panel, achieving 83.3% sensitivity within seven hours without microbial enrichment culture. This dataset serves as a comprehensive reference for bioinformatic tool development and biomarker panel proposals, advancing microbial detection, antimicrobial resistance, and epidemiological studies.
