The production of the recombinant SA01-OmpA was described in an earlier study (10 (link)). After the induction of E. coli BL21 (DE3) containing pET26b-SA01-OmpA, cells were sonicated, and SA01-OmpA was purified with Ni-NTA (Nickel Nitrilotriacetic acid) resin using standard protocols from Qiagen. Then, the purified protein was subjected to SDS-PAGE, and the concentration of SA01-OmpA was determined using a bicinchoninic acid (BCA) assay (Parstous, Iran).
