Fig. 1

Expression and immunogenicity analysis of recombinant OmpA. A – rOmpA separated on 10% SDS-PAGE for protein quantitation. Lanes 1–5 – BSA standards, lane 6 – lysate of E. coli expressing rOmpA induced for 4 h, lane 7 – lysate of E. coli expressing inactivated rOmpA, and lane M – gene marker. B – The 65 kDa of expressed rOmpA separated on 10% SDS-PAGE. Lane 1 – pET-32a incubated for 0 h, lane 2 – pET-32a incubated for 4 h, lane 3 – lysate of E. coli expressing rOmpA induced for 0 h, lane 4 – lysate of E. coli expressing rOmpA induced for 4 h, and lane M – gene marker. C – Western blot analysis with anti-RA duck sera. Lane 1 – pET-32a incubated for 0 h, lane 2 – pET-32a incubated for 4 h, lane 3 – lysate of E. coli expressing rOmpA induced for 0 h, lane 4 – lysate of E. coli expressing rOmpA induced for 4 h and M – gene marker

Cytokine mRNA levels in immunised ducks. The mRNA expression levels of IFN-α (A), IFN-γ (B), IL-6 (C), and IL-12 (D) are shown as fold change relative to the saline control. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation of ducks in the treatment (n = 5). Different superscript letters indicate statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between groups for the same sampling time point

Cross-serotype detection by antiserum from ducks immunised with rOmpA + CpG. A – Detection with antiserum of unimmunised ducks. B – Detection with antiserum of ducks immunised with rOmpA + CpG. RA1 – RA serotype 1, RA2 – RA serotype 2, RA6 – RA serotype 6, RA56a – RA of unknown serotype, rOmpA – rOmpA induced for 4 h, and M – protein ladder with labelled molecular weights. The positions of the 65-kDa rOmpA and the 42-kDa OmpA proteins are indicated by the arrows
