Hi Chen,
We purified the membrane proteins from Fusobacterium and the company New England Peptide injected the rabbits. I believe they inject around 1-2 mg total protein, but you'll have to contact them for specifics. Next, we did not purify the antibodies from the rabbit serum. We just use the rabbit serum for our microscopy assays.
I hope this helps.
