Edwardsiella ictaluri is a Gram-negative bacterium that has been reported to be disease causing in several economic fish including Nile tilapia. Here, immunoproteomic identification found that outer membrane protein A (OmpA) could react with serum from fish naturally infected with E. ictaluri. The e...
