Research Use Only Policy

Last updated: March 1, 2026

All products sold by BlueBio LLC are designated For Research Use Only (RUO). This designation has a specific legal and regulatory meaning. RUO products are intended solely for use in laboratory research and in vitro experimentation. They are not approved, cleared, or licensed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or any other regulatory authority for use in diagnostic procedures, clinical applications, therapeutic treatments, or any other form of human or veterinary medicine.

By placing an order with BlueBio, the purchaser represents and warrants that:

  • They are a qualified researcher, scientist, or licensed professional purchasing for legitimate research purposes;
  • The purchased products will not be used for human consumption, self-administration, or administration to any other person or animal outside of a licensed veterinary or research context;
  • The purchaser has reviewed and understands the applicable laws and regulations governing research chemicals in their jurisdiction;
  • The purchaser is solely responsible for ensuring their use of these products complies with all applicable federal, state, and local laws.

BlueBio reserves the right to refuse any order that, in its sole judgment, appears to be placed for purposes inconsistent with legitimate research use. Orders from individuals who make representations inconsistent with research use, or who are located in jurisdictions where importation or possession of these products is prohibited, will be cancelled and refunded.

Eligible purchasers include: research institutions, universities, licensed clinical laboratories, pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology firms, and licensed medical practitioners ordering for investigational use within applicable legal frameworks. Personal orders without an institutional affiliation are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Nothing in the product descriptions, educational content, certificates of analysis, or any other BlueBio materials constitutes a medical claim, treatment recommendation, or endorsement of any particular use. Published research cited on this site is provided for informational purposes only.

Processing and Dispatch

Orders are processed Monday through Friday. Standard processing time is within 48 hours of order confirmation. Orders placed after 12:00 PM ET on Friday will be dispatched the following Monday. An email confirmation with tracking information is sent at time of dispatch.

Cold-Chain Packaging

All orders are shipped with cold-chain packaging as standard. This includes insulated packaging and gel ice packs sized for the transit window. Our packaging is designed to maintain appropriate temperature conditions for up to 48 hours in transit under normal conditions. For longer transit windows or extreme weather, please contact us before ordering to discuss options.

Upon receipt, products should be transferred to appropriate storage conditions immediately. Lyophilized peptides should be stored at -20 degrees Celsius unless otherwise specified. Do not allow products to remain at ambient temperature for extended periods after receipt.

Domestic Shipping

We ship to all 50 U.S. states and Washington D.C. Shipping rates and estimated delivery windows are calculated at checkout based on destination and service level. Delivery timelines are estimates provided by the carrier and are not guaranteed by BlueBio. We are not responsible for carrier delays outside our control.

International Shipping

International shipping is available to select jurisdictions where importation of research peptides is permitted. It is the sole responsibility of the purchaser to verify that importing and possessing the ordered products is legal in their country. BlueBio does not provide legal guidance on import regulations in foreign jurisdictions.

International orders may be subject to customs duties, import taxes, or fees levied by the destination country. These charges are the responsibility of the purchaser and are not included in the product price or shipping cost. BlueBio accurately declares the contents and value of all international shipments on required customs documentation and will not misrepresent shipment contents to facilitate import.

Orders to jurisdictions where importation is known to be restricted will not be fulfilled. If an order is placed to a restricted destination and identified after payment, the order will be cancelled and refunded in full.

Lost or Damaged Shipments

If a shipment arrives damaged or is reported as lost by the carrier, contact hello@bluebio.io within 7 calendar days of the expected delivery date with your order number and a description of the issue. We will work with the carrier to investigate and, where appropriate, issue a replacement or refund. Damage claims may require photographic documentation.
