Recombinant, monoclonal anti-TNFα antibody (prepared in house) and soluble, trimeric TNFα (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA) were mixed in a 3:1 molar ratio to form complexes composed of three anti-TNFα molecules binding one TNFα trimer. The mixtures were incubated for 24 or 48 h at 37 °C. The average molecular weights of the TNFα immune complexes were measured using a Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) system coupled with Multi-Angle Light Scattering (MALS) and Refractive Index (RI) detection. HPLC data were collected on an Agilent 1100 liquid chromatograph (Palo Alto, CA, USA) equipped with an OptiLab refractive index detector (Wyatt Technology, Santa Barbara, CA, USA) and a MiniDawn TREOS light scattering detector (Wyatt Technology, Santa Barbara, CA, USA). A Bio SEC-5 (Agilent, Palo Alto, CA, USA) size exclusion column (4.6 × 300 mm, 5 μm) was used for the analysis. An isocratic mobile phase of 0.15 M sodium phosphate (pH 7.0) at a flow rate of 0.35 mL/min was employed for the separation at an ambient column temperature. An injection volume of 25 µL was employed. Data were processed using both Empower 2 software (Build 2154, Waters, Milford, MA, USA) and ASTRA software (Version 5.3.4, Wyatt Technology, Santa Barbara, CA, USA). Each sample (monomer or complex) was analyzed directly post sample preparation.
