Create mode – the default mode when you create a requisition and PunchOut to Bio-Rad. You can create and edit multiple shopping carts
Edit mode – allows you to edit or modify an existing requisition (prior to submitting). You will be able to modify only the cart that you have PunchedOut to, and won't have access to any other carts
Inspect mode – when you PunchOut to Bio-Rad from a previously created requisition but without initiating an Edit session, you will be in this mode. You cannot modify any Cart contents

Subclass and binding site selection simplified
Human IgG (immunoglobulin G) is expressed on the surface of mature B cells and is the most prevalent Ig in serum and the major Ig in extravascular spaces. IgG1, IgG2 and IgG3 are complement activators, with IgG3 being the strongest.
Human immunoglobulin subclasses IgG1 and IgG3 tend to strongly bind fragment crystallization (Fc) receptors, whereas subclasses IgG2 and IgG4 bind weakly. IgG is also the only human immunoglobulin to pass from mother to fetus to transfer immunity.
It should be noted, the human immunoglobulin subclass IgG2 does cross the placenta, but it does so weakly.
Bio-Rad offers a range of human immunoglobulin antibodies for the IgG isotype. In addition to human, we also offer IgG antibodies for a wide range of other target species. Below you will find a list of all of our IgG antibodies. Use the buttons/filters to identify the antibody that fits your exact requirements.
