ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides for methods of preparing purified immune globulins, immune globulin compositions, and methods of treating allergies and conditions by administering immune globulin compositions. For example, the present invention provides for purified IgG4 that is essentially free of other IgG subtypes that can be used to treat allergies and other conditions.
