Diagram of workflow for affinity chromatography column generation and validation for antigen identification. Column IgG capture following serum loading was assessed using serum protein electrophoresis (SPE). Capture and cross-linking efficiency of IgG antibodies was determined using rabbit IgG specific ELISA. Specificity of antigen capture and non-specific protein binding were assessed using silver stained gels and Western blots with post-immunization rabbit serum (D84), for protein run-through from columns eluted at pH 5, 4 and 2.9. Antigen identifications were made using LC-MS/MS analysis of specifically bound proteins eluted from D0 versus D84 columns.
