Re: canine Abs

Hi David. Peter Moore at UC Davis (pfmoore@ucdavis.edu) has a wide 
variety of canine specific leukocyte antibodies, including an 
excellent (surface) anti-CD3 antibody (2A12) and an anti-CD45 (not 
CD45 like) antibody. I would suggest you contact him directly. Many 
of the anti-human and anti mouse leukocyte antibodies do NOT cross 
react.

Cheers, Bill
