Research use policy.

All Retabionix products are for laboratory research use only. They are not drugs, foods, cosmetics or medical devices. They are not for use in people or animals, and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. These products have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. The buyer is solely responsible for how these products are handled and used.

1. What research use only means

Every Retabionix Product is supplied solely for in vitro laboratory research, analytical work and education, carried out by qualified persons. Research use never includes use in or on a person or an animal, consumption, or any diagnostic, clinical, cosmetic or veterinary purpose. Products are not drugs, dietary supplements, foods, cosmetics, medical devices or veterinary products, and have not been approved, cleared or evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration or any other authority for any such use.

2. Who may buy

Only qualified researchers aged 21 or over, and people buying for a research laboratory, academic institution or business that buys for research use. We do not sell to, or open accounts for, any clinic, medical or wellness practice, med spa, pharmacy, compounding facility, telehealth service or practitioner.

3. The confirmation we ask for, and why we keep it

Before you enter the Site, and again before you buy, you confirm that you are 21 or over, that you are a qualified researcher or buying for one, and that you understand the Products are for laboratory research only. That confirmation is an electronic signature. We record it with its date and time, keep it with your order for seven years, and our checkout system re-checks it before any order is accepted. We may ask for further evidence of eligibility at any time.

4. What you may not do

• Use any Product in or on a person or an animal, or allow anyone else to.
• Supply, resell or give any Product to anyone for use in or on a person or an animal, or to any clinic, practice, pharmacy, compounding facility or practitioner.
• Repackage, relabel or divide any Product, or remove or obscure its label, lot number or research-use statement.
• Describe or promote any Product as suitable for use in people or animals.
• Misrepresent your age, qualifications or purpose, or order through someone else to avoid this policy.

5. What we do not do

• We do not give advice on preparing, using or applying any Product.
• We do not sell water, consumables, or any preparation or delivery equipment, and we do not source them on request.
• We do not describe what any Product does, or make any claim about its effect on a person or an animal.
• We do not supply any Product for use in people or animals, whatever the buyer says.

No employee, contractor, distributor, wholesale customer or other person is authorized to say otherwise on our behalf. Any statement suggesting a Product may be used in people or animals is unauthorized and does not represent Retabionix.

6. What we do publish

For every lot, the certificate of analysis from an independent laboratory, stating identity and purity and naming the laboratory and its methods; the storage condition on the label; and, with your first order, a safety data sheet. Reference chemistry (CAS number, formula, molecular weight, sequence) is published on each product page. Some Products are listed under a catalog code; the code is a catalog convention only, and full identification is on the product page and the certificate.

7. Safe handling, storage and disposal

Products are laboratory chemicals whose properties may not be fully characterized. Handle them only with appropriate training, in a suitable laboratory, with appropriate personal protective equipment and engineering controls, following the safety data sheet and your institution's chemical hygiene plan. Store each Product at the condition on its label, out of reach of unauthorized persons. Dispose of unused material, containers and waste as federal, state, local and institutional rules require. Report any incident to your institution's safety officer.

8. Your responsibilities

You are responsible for complying with every law, regulation, license condition and institutional rule that applies to your purchase, possession, use and disposal of the Products, and for deciding whether a Product is suitable for your research.

9. How we enforce this policy

If we believe an order is intended for use in people or animals, that a buyer is not eligible, or that this policy has been broken, we will cancel open orders, refuse future orders, close any account, and may report the matter to the appropriate authorities and share our records with them. Our Terms set out the consequences in full, including your obligation to indemnify us.

10. Wholesale customers

Wholesale customers must apply this policy to every onward sale: resupply only sealed, labeled Products, only to purchasers verified as eligible, keep records for three years and provide them on request. See Wholesale and section 20 of our Terms.
