Hi Paul

This is the (scattergun) panel we use to characterise a new acute leukaemia:
CD14/glycophorin A/45, CD34/33/45, CD15/13/45, CD7/11b/HLA-Dr, CD5/10/19,
CD61/62/45, CD8/4/3, CD3/56+16/20, CD2/19/45, Kappa/Lambda/19, TdT.  We
also do myeloperoxidase/lactoferrin if myeloid lineage is established.

For followups on known leukaemias we use a panel of antibodies which were
found to characterise the disease, all with CD45Cy5, and analyse the blast
population on the CD45/SS histogram.
