Guinea pig thymocytes.

Supplied as a lyophilized powder from PBS, pH 7.4, 1% BSA, 0.09% sodium azide. Labeled with R-Phycoerythrin (PE). Reconstitute with 1ml sterile ddH2O.

Purified by Protein A affinity chromatography.

Recognizes CD1b3, an antigen expressed by guinea pig B lymphocytes. The antigen is found on mature B cells, weakly on germinal center B cells, and also on a proportion of thymocytes and peritoneal macrophages.
