title: Generation and preliminary characterization of three mouse monoclonal antibodies reacting with human B lymphocytes.
abstract: The paper describes generation and characterization of three monoclonal antibodies (BR3, BR16, BR31) specific for human B lymphocytes. BR3 and BR31 stain highly purified population of B lymphocytes but fail to react with granulocytes, monocytes and E+ lymphocytes. BR16 in addition to B cells also stains 10% peripheral T cells and 70% granulocytes. BR3 staining pattern closely correlates that obtained with antihuman Ig both in peripheral blood and in lymphoid tissues. BR31 recognizes a subpopulation of B lymphocytes (about 50%).
