Some countries require a phytosanitary certificate issued by the Japanese Plant Control Protection Organization or permission from your government to import seed materials. RIKEN BRC cannot guarantee any loss or damage that may occur during customs clearance. Please feel free to contact us at the email address if there are any permits or documents that should be included in or attached to the package before shipping your order. Other documents, such as a plant product description, will be made by negotiation, as they are sometimes different each time. When you receive the package, please carefully check what you have received and email us your receipt. If there is any problem found in the materials, please inform us immediately.\n<\/p><\/ul>\n <\/a><\/p>\n 5.

\n\nA Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) must be fully executed before an order is shipped. The MTA defines the rights and obligations of both the provider and the recipient. The terms and conditions specified by the depositors should be followed. Some of the depositors require written consent. Our MTAs fall into two categories: Category I and Category II. Visit the following page and select the appropriate category for your organization and research purpose. The Category II is available for limited resources on the Web, but will be provided upon your request. Please note that MTAs are subject to change due to government policy.\n

\n\n(1) Seed Stocks
\nSurface-sterilized seeds are contained in a sealed plastic tube. The tube is wrapped with a sealed plastic bag and finally placed in a small package lined with cushioning material. Seeds are shipped by registered airmail (e-packet) via Japan Post. Please note that the tagged line seeds are usually progeny of heterozygous plants unless otherwise stated in the catalog.\n<\/ul>\n\n(2) DNA Clones
\nIndividual DNA materials are shipped as lyophilized plasmid (approximately 100 ng) in a sealed plastic tube. The tube is wrapped in a sealed plastic bag and finally placed in a small package lined with cushioning material. The seeds are shipped by registered airmail (e-packet) via Japan Post.\n<\/ul>\n\n(3) Plant Cell Cultures
\nPlant cell cultures are shipped by international carriers at the receiver’s expense.\n<\/ul>\nNote<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
