The present invention provides a novel immunogenic composition, vaccine and methods for making and using the immunogenic composition and vaccine. The immunogenic composition is capable of providing an immune response and/or a protective immunity into subjects, preferably mammals, against microorganism-associated disease. The immunogenic composition includes one or more extracellular proteins isolated from a microorganism capable of providing an immune response and/or a protective immunity into subjects against microorganism-associated disease. The isolated extracellular proteins range in molecular weight from about 10,000 Da to about 220,000 Da. Suitable microorganisms may include members of the genus Salmonella, Listeria, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, and Vibrio. Kits are also encompassed for detection, diagnosis and prevention of microorganism-associated disease.
