Intended use
All products are offered strictly for laboratory research use only. They are not intended for human or veterinary use, or for diagnosis, treatment, cure or prevention of any disease.
Prohibited use
Products may not be used in or on humans or animals, nor for any clinical, diagnostic, therapeutic or food purpose. Reselling or transferring materials for such uses is prohibited.
Buyer qualifications
Buyers must be qualified and authorized to purchase and handle research materials and must be of legal age in their jurisdiction. EMBER may request evidence of qualification.
Handling responsibility
Buyers are responsible for handling, storing and disposing of materials safely and in accordance with applicable institutional, local, state and federal requirements.

No medical advice
EMBER does not provide medical advice, dosing guidance, administration instructions, or recommendations for human or veterinary use, and nothing on this site should be interpreted as such.

Documentation is provided per product and lot. A record is published once the document for that batch has been issued; until then the record states that it is in preparation.

EMBER may refuse, limit or cancel any order at its discretion, including where a use appears inconsistent with this policy.
