What 'Research Use Only' means
Research Use Only (RUO) describes materials supplied solely for laboratory research. RUO materials are not drugs, foods, dietary supplements, cosmetics, or medical devices.
RUO materials are not for human or veterinary use, consumption, or clinical or diagnostic application, and they have not been evaluated or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for any such use.
Buyers are responsible for using RUO materials lawfully, for handling and storing them safely, and for confirming that receipt is permitted at their destination.
On Apexia, every product is sold strictly for research use only, and buyers confirm they are at least 21 and qualified to handle research materials at checkout.
This article is educational reference only. All products are sold strictly for laboratory research and are not for human or veterinary use. Nothing here is medical, veterinary, or scientific advice.
