                                            observed that both 24 hours and 48 hours of induction result in satisfactory
                                            protein expression levels. Considering all factors, it is recommended to
                                            choose a 24-hour induction period for optimal protein expression.
                                            According to the gel plot analysis, BSLA was expressed in both LB and
                                            self-induction medium, with auto-induction medium showing better expression.
                                            Therefore, we chose the auto-induction medium to induce the expression of
                                            BSLA.

                                    LB medium is a nutrient-rich medium commonly used for culturing bacteria such as

                                    0.1 mM IPTG, 20 °C, 180 rpm, 24 hours: Add IPTG (Isopropyl

                                    at a concentration of 0.1 millimolar to the culture medium to induce the expression
                                    of the target protein. Next, continue to culture it at 20 °C and 180
                                    rpm for 24 hours. IPTG is a synthetic compound that can mimic
                                    signals bacteria receive in their natural environment, thus triggering the
                                    expression of the target protein. E. coli cells were harvested by centrifugation at
                                    11600 g for 10 min at 4 °C, and then washed twice with proper buffer (pH 7.5). The
                                    washed cells were resuspended in 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 8.0) and
                                    disrupted by sonication (10-sec pulse on, 15-sec pulse off, AMP 20%). </p>
