AbD (Antibodies Direct) is the research antibody division of MorphoSys, one of the world's leading antibody technology companies.

The AbD Serotec brand was created in early 2006 to market the combined products and services of Antibodies by Design, Biogenesis, Serotec, and Oxford Biotechnology – more than 10,000 antibodies and immunological reagents, custom monoclonal antibodies developed from the MorphoSys HuCAL library, and large and small scale antibody production and conjugation services. In 2013, AbD Serotec Inc. was bought by Bio-Rad Antibodies, with an entire brand change now being complete.

AbD Serotec offers more than fifteen thousand antibodies and immunological reagents covering the research areas of immunology, veterinary immunology, apoptosis, autophagy, stem cells, and neuroscience for human, rat, mouse and veterinary species.

We offer a comprehensive list of human CD markers, among others anti human CD3 (clone CD3-12), anti human CD52 and multicolor reagents. Anti complement protein human C4d is the ideal marker to monitor transplant rejection and one of our most popular products.

AbD Serotec is the exclusive manufacturer of many key anti mouse antibodies such as F4/80 (clone Cl:A3-1), Ly6B.2 (clone 7/4), CD206 (clone MR5D3), anti Dectin-1 (clone 2A11), and anti CD11b (clone 5C6). An extensive mouse CD marker catalog completes our offering. MCA497 (anti F4/80 clone CI:A3-1) is the best known marker for mature mouse macrophages and blood monocytes, cited in over 350 peer-reviewed articles.

We are exclusive manufacturer of the top clones to characterize rat macrophages: anti CD68 (clone ED1), anti CD163 (clone ED2) and anti CD169 (clone ED3). We also offer top immunology rat markers.
