\u201cResearch Use Only\u201d, or RUO for short, is a designation of intended use. It defines what a product is sold for: exclusively for scientific, analytical, and laboratory chemical investigations. This designation applies to every product in the range, regardless of format \u2013 Vial or Pen.<\/p>\n
It also follows what the products are explicitly not:<\/p>\n
The compounds are not intended for human or veterinary use. Product descriptions, technical terms in the Glossary<\/a> and analysis reports serve solely to provide information about the compound itself.<\/p>\n The range is aimed at researchers, laboratories, and institutes that need compounds for their own scientific or analytical questions. By ordering from SunPept, you declare that you will use the products exclusively within this framework.<\/p>\n Whether purchase and intended use are legally permitted in an individual case depends on the substance and intended use and is the responsibility of the buyer. You can find a classification for Germany in the article Research Peptides in Germany: Legal Status<\/a>; information on shipping and the contract under Buying peptides in Germany<\/a>.<\/p>\n Before you can complete an order, you tick a mandatory checkbox at checkout. This confirms that you are purchasing the products exclusively for research purposes and not for human or veterinary use. No order is possible without this confirmation.<\/p>\n For documentation purposes, the time of confirmation and the IP address are stored. You can find more details in the Privacy policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n What happens after checkout \u2013 prepayment, shipping, delivery countries \u2013 is explained on the page Ordering peptides<\/a>.<\/p>\n The designation of intended use determines which information you will not receive from SunPept \u2013 neither on the product pages nor on request:<\/p>\n This is not a gap in service but the consequence of RUO: research compounds are offered with information on substance, format, contents, and storage \u2013 not with recommendations for use.
