Research-use-only terms

Every product on this site is sold for in-vitro laboratory research only. This page sets out exactly what that means and what you agree to when you order.

What these products are not

They are not medicines, medical devices, supplements, food, feed or cosmetics. They are not for human or veterinary consumption, injection, application, diagnosis or treatment. They have not been evaluated by the EMA, the MHRA, the FDA or any comparable authority, and no claim of safety or efficacy is made for any of them.

What you confirm when you order

• You are of legal age in the country where you live.
• You are acquiring the material for laboratory research and not for use in a person or an animal.
• You have the knowledge and facilities to handle, store and dispose of research chemicals safely.
• You have checked that you may lawfully buy, import and hold these materials where you are.

Handling and disposal

Treat every vial as a laboratory chemical. Keep it away from food, out of reach of children and animals, and store it as described on the product page. Dispose of unused material and sharps through the proper waste route for your setting — not in household waste and not down a drain.

What this label does and does not do

We are direct about this because it matters. Research-use-only labelling describes the terms on which we supply the material. It does not change the legal status of any compound in your country, and it does not transfer a licence or permission to you. If a substance is controlled where you live, it stays controlled whatever the label says.

We may decline an order

We will refuse or cancel any order where we believe the material would be used in a person or an animal, where the destination country prohibits it, or where the request suggests the material is not going to a research setting. If we cancel, you get a full refund.
