I wonder about the presence of other interactions such as lectin like,
hydrophobic and so on....basically how two of more IgG from a single animal
can associate ?

Yet, I am only dealing with intra specy or autologous IgG. It is obvious to me
that inter species (goat/Rat/human...) differences (such as primary structure,
glycosylation...) induce the production of antibody.
>If you mean other kinds of interactions....
I am exploring any kind of interaction between IgG from a single
animal...and e-microscopy seems not to be a good tool to do so.
