Online Ordering Information

AbD Serotec has designed its Website to be easy and intuitive to use. However, we’ve provided some simple tips on how to search, filter, browse and purchase below to get the most out of your experience. We hope you enjoy your visit and welcome any feedback on how to improve our Website. Please send your suggestions to ebusiness@abdserotec.com


Searching/Filtering Results

Search
The easiest way to find what you are looking for is to use the “Search” facility. You’ll see one on every Web page. Exact matches are ranked higher up on the returned results page than near matches.

Filter
Refine the search using our simple to use filters. You can sort by product type e.g. antibodies or antigens, target species, cross reactive species, clone, format, application, host, isotype and by whether the item is available for bulk order.

Compare
Select up to 3 items for a side by side comparison using our “Compare” feature.

View Images
You don’t even have to leave the search results page to look at our product images. Just click on the camera icon for a pop up window to appear and close it when you’re done. If you need further information about the product simply visit the online product page.


Browsing Microsites

Searching isn’t the only way to find what you are looking for – you can also browse the site. The various areas we support and our resources are listed at the top of each page. Simply hover over the tabs to see the most popular microsites and Web pages and select your preference. Alternatively, you can access these pages through the site map found at the footer of each page.


Adding a Product to your Cart

Quick Order
If you know the Product Code of the item you wish to purchase you can simply enter it into the Quick Order form found on the homepage (bottom left) and go straight to the checkout.

Choosing an Item
When you’ve found a product from the “Search” you wish to purchase, click the BUY button to add it to “My Cart” (found at the top right of the page). By default the quantity of an item is set to “1” but you can change the number in the box to order more.

“My Cart” will display the number of items in your basket and the total cost before any taxes, shipping or discounts are applied.

Checkout
When you have finished slecting products, click on the “Go to Checkout” button in “My Cart” to proceed to the payment step.

Choosing a Payment Option
There are 2 ways to order online: (a) by credit card or (b) by purchase order. Just click on one of the buttons to reveal a new window at the bottom of the page.
