Research Use Only Agreement
Orion Peptides is dedicated to serving the scientific community by providing high-quality research materials designed strictly for laboratory and in-vitro use. This Research Use Only (RUO) Policy outlines the intended purpose of our products, the responsibilities of purchasers, and the terms that apply to every order placed on our website.
1. Research Use Only
Every product sold by Orion Peptides is designated as Research Use Only (RUO).
These items are supplied exclusively for scientific study, laboratory experimentation, analytical testing, and educational purposes. Our products are not approved for human or veterinary use and must never be applied in diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical settings.
By purchasing from our website, you acknowledge and accept these usage restrictions.
2. What Does “RUO” Mean?
The Research Use Only label identifies products created specifically for scientific inquiry rather than medical treatment or diagnosis.
RUO materials are typically used by universities, research labs, biotechnology firms, and other qualified institutions engaged in laboratory work. These products haven’t gone through the regulatory approval process required for drugs or medical devices, and should only be used by individuals trained in proper laboratory protocols.
3. Not Pharmaceutical Products
Our offerings are research-grade reagents and should not be mistaken for prescription drugs or approved pharmaceutical products.
Unlike pharmaceuticals, our Research Use Only materials:
Have not been tested for human or veterinary safety
Are not designed to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease
Come without dosage guidance or medical instructions
Are intended strictly for controlled laboratory research
4. Who Can Buy From Us?
Orion Peptides sells to qualified individuals and organizations engaged in legitimate research, such as:
Independent researchers
Universities and academic institutions
Public and private research laboratories
Biotechnology firms
Pharmaceutical research organizations
Clinical research facilities conducting approved laboratory studies
By placing an order, you confirm that your purchase is intended solely for lawful research purposes.
5. Buyer Responsibilities
By purchasing from Orion Peptides, you confirm and agree that:
You are at least 21 years old
Products will be used solely for legitimate laboratory and in-vitro research
Products will not be given to humans or animals

Orion Peptides reserves the right to decline or cancel any order if we suspect the products may be used in a way that conflicts with this policy.
6. Product Documentation
To promote transparency and quality assurance, we may provide product documentation where applicable, such as:
Certificate of Analysis (COA)
Safety Data Sheet (SDS), when available
Product specifications and analytical data
These materials help researchers assess product quality and laboratory characteristics.
7. Order Verification & Compliance
To uphold our internal quality and research standards, certain orders may undergo review before shipping.
We may request additional verification for large-quantity orders, unusual purchasing patterns, or other situations requiring further confirmation. This could include verifying research affiliation or requesting additional order details prior to processing.
8. Disclaimer & Limitation of Liability
All products are sold “AS IS” and strictly for research purposes.
Orion Peptides offers no warranties, express or implied, regarding merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or suitability for any use beyond legitimate laboratory research.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Orion Peptides is not liable for any loss, damage, injury, or liability arising from improper handling, misuse, unauthorized use, or failure to comply with applicable laws and laboratory safety standards.
