Yan Gao,
This is a great way to do it as has been described by Jackie with the one caveat that even if you are doing this with SCID mice, remember that you can have some background problems depending on the genetic background of the SCID. B & T cell "leakage" in SCID's is a well known fact due to some small amount of residual immunocompentant activity. Indeed, plasma Ig can be found in SCIDS, so B cells can certainly be there. Depends on the genetic background (CB.17, C3H, ICR, etc). Some are very clean (no leakage) so you would not have to worry about putting a mouse monoclonal on a SCID when using xenografts. But some are very "leaky" and so mouse Ig antibodies will give you a bit of a problem. Depends on your mouse model/background strain.
