“…The objective of this communication is to present an alternative purification method that would be straightforward to implement, nondenaturing, and would not be compromised by the large size and small diffusion coefficient of IgMs. Accordingly, we studied a nonchromatographic, ligand‐free method that has demonstrated its utility with IgGs and F(ab′) 2 fragments: the active medium is based on micellar aggregates that are formed upon conjugation with amphiphilic [(bathophenanthroline) 3 :Fe 2+ ] complexes (Dhandapani, Howard, et al, 2019; Dhandapani, Nair, et al, 2019; Dhandapani et al, 2020, 2021) Such aggregates were found to: (i) quantitatively capture IgGs (Dhandapani, Howard, et al, 2019; Dhandapani, Nair, et al, 2019; Dhandapani et al, 2020), as well as the F(ab′) 2 domain of a monoclonal antibody (Dhandapani et al, 2021) (presumably due to hydrophobic interactions with the detergent aggregates, in agreement with diverse studies showing how IgGs are purified via hydrophobic interaction chromatography) (Follman & Fahrner, 2004; Ghosh & Wang, 2006; Guse et al, 1994; Manzke et al, 1997); (ii) reject hydrophilic impurities; and (iii) allow efficient recovery of pure antibodies from the detergent aggregates at pH 3.8.…”
