A dual-laser fluorescence-activated cell sorter was utilized to study the distribution of the surface IgM and IgD on individual B cells of normal and immune-defective CBA/N mice. Cells from different lymphoid organs and from developing mice were studied. Two major populations of cells were seen. Those with low densities of surface IgM and intermediate-high densities of surface IgD were relatively or totally absent from the bone marrow, spleens, and lymph nodes of adult, immune- defective (CBA/N x DBA/2)F1 male mice, and developed late in ontogeny in the lymphoid organs of normal F1 female mice. By contrast, the second major population, with intermediate-high surface IgM and low surface IgD, was found in highest frequency in the lymphoid organs of immature mice, the bone marrow of adult mice, and the lymphoid organs of F1 male mice compared to F1 female mice at any age. These two major populations of B cells were further subdivided into five groups of cells to better define the surface IgM and IgD characteristics of developing B cells of immune-defective and normal mice. The relationship of these groups of cells to populations defined by other criteria are discussed.
