Carol,
  How specific do you need it to be?  We do use CD138 (Syndecan-1) for
plasma cells.  It also picks up some pre-B cells and some ALL's (weakly),
as well as some some endothelium and some epithelium (particularly
squamous).  Here is our ordering info:

CD138 (Syndecan-1), clone B-B4     cat# MCA681H
