Stability of aggregate species is observed to be molar mass and size dependent.
Syringe shear stress is not detectable using AF4-MALS, but is observed by batch-mode DLS.
The focusing step, unique to AF4, does not impact anti-SA IgG aggregates stability.
Dilution in AF4 is shown to be significantly lower than widely perceived.
AF4 theory may provide more accurate sizes for weakly bound aggregates than online DLS.
