Our Commitment to Compliance
At Helix Lab, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of compliance and transparency. All products sold on this website are for research and laboratory use only.
Products are not medicines, medical devices, food, supplements or cosmetics. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, and statements on this website must not be treated as medical or veterinary advice.
What This Means for You
- Not for human consumption — Our products are not intended for human or animal consumption.
- Not medical devices — They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
- Qualified researchers only — By purchasing, you confirm you are a qualified researcher or laboratory professional and will handle all materials in accordance with applicable laws and safety standards.
Why This Matters
Maintaining the “research use only” status lets us focus on providing high-quality, transparent research tools. It also supports responsible procurement and our efforts to comply with applicable UK regulations while serving the scientific community.
Research-use-only labelling does not automatically exempt a product from regulatory requirements. Product classification depends on applicable laws, presentation and intended use.
Purchaser Responsibility
By ordering, you confirm that you are at least 18, understand the nature of the materials, and have the competence, facilities and authority needed to receive and handle them. You are responsible for applicable laws, institutional approvals, risk assessments and local disposal requirements.
Handling and Storage
Use appropriate personal protective equipment, controlled access, labelling and containment. Follow the product label and any batch documentation. Keep products away from children, animals, food and areas used for personal-care products.
If packaging is damaged or information is unclear, isolate the item and contact us before handling further.
Website Information
Product descriptions and research references are provided for general information and procurement support. Research is continually developing, and the website may not include every risk, interaction or regulatory requirement.
Customers must conduct their own qualified review before purchase or use.
Prohibited Use
Products must not be used for self-administration, clinical treatment, household use, doping, food production or any unlawful purpose.
We may refuse or cancel an order where information suggests an unsafe, prohibited or non-research use.
