Understanding Research Use Only (RUO) Labeling
The Research Use Only (RUO) designation indicates a product is intended for laboratory research and is not for human or animal use, nor for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
Why it matters
RUO labeling sets clear expectations for how a material may be used and reminds purchasers that it has not been evaluated for clinical applications.
Responsible sourcing
Laboratories should confirm that suppliers provide lot-specific documentation and clear RUO statements with every order.
