We did try eluting isolated polyclonal IgG4 from the capture resins (ie depletion experiments), but recovery efficiency wasn't ideal

We need lots of starting sample to do meaningful experiments, and it would be unclear if IgG4 still stuck on the resin would bias subsequent interpretations

Thanks for the deep dive into our paper. We were just setting up accounts to post over on Bluesky too, but you beat us to it 🙊😊

In short, Carissa is currently exploring the effects of Fab arm exchange on IgG4 (but that will be another future paper)
