The 14.8 antibody reacts with an exon A-dependent epitope of CD45.
Currently, I'm studying B cells in the bone marrow, spleen, and
peritoneal cavity of MRL/lpr mice and BALB/c mice. I have examined the
recent literature and I understand that similar studies use
CD45R/B220, RA3-6B2. Will the 14.8 antibody give me the sensitivity
necessary to examine to various B cell subpopulations?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
