Additional info: The antibody detects surface immunoglobulin on normal and neoplastic B-cells. Anti-lambda staining isseen in B-cell follicles of human lymphoid tissue. When dealing with B-cell neoplasms, thedetermination of light chain ratios remains helpful. Most B-cell lymphomas express either kappa orlambda light chains, whereas reactive proliferations display a mixture of kappa and lambda positivecells. If only a single light chain type is detected, a lymphoproliferative disorder is very likely.
