Recyclable CIM disks and papers

Another paper on anti-glycophorin-A MAb "purification" (compare to the one described in the post "Acid Test for antibody function?" by Ambur P. Dhivya's 2010 paper in Chromatographia)

CIM-EDA has been used in both papers.  In this latest one (2012), ~ 8 fold purification was seen with elution with 25 mM MOPS, pH 6.5 and 0.2 M NaCl.
In the older one (2010), 20 mM Tris buffer, pH 8, 0.6 M NaCl gave ~74 fold purification.

Images are still difficult to make out; but why change the conditions and report worse "purification" with different conditions?
