Evaluation of the impact of antibody fragments on aggregation of intact molecules via size exclusion chromatography coupled with native mass spectrometry by Jing Xu, John E. Coughlin, Malgorzata Szyjka, Serene Jabary, Sonal Saluja, Zoran Sosic, Yunqiu Chen, Chong-Feng Xu

“…In this study, we focused on understanding mAb stability in the presence of its monovalent fragment, formed through hinge cleavage and loss of one Fab unit (referred to as “Fab/c”), a commonly observed impurity during manufacturing and stability. The Fab/c fragments were generated using a limited IgdE digestion that specifically cleaves above the IgG1 mAb hinge region, followed by hydrophobic interaction chromatographic (HIC) enrichment. …”
