- The above fee does not include shipping cost. Shipping costs will be independently charged from international couriers.
- For expression clones containing mammalian cDNA produced by the Gateway® Technology, a license fee of JPY 2,090 is separately required per clone. For a for-profit organization, it is necessary to obtain a license from Life Technology Inc. (Revision of Licensing Fee Equivalent for the Distribution of Bioresources Utilizing Gateway® Technology [link])
- For DNA resources containing fluorescent proteins owned by, or licensed to, Clontech Laboratories, Inc. (currently registered as Takara Bio USA, Inc.(TBUSA)), a license fee of JPY 21,010 is separately required per clone.

(*1) This refers to the use of the bioresource in research by a not-for-profit organization for not-for-profit academic purpose. Category I MTA shall be used.
(*2) This refers to the use of the bioresource in research for the following a. – d. cases. Category II MTA shall be used.
- a. For research by for-profit organization
- b. For collaborative research between for-profit organization and not-for-profit organization
- c. For research by not-for-profit organization outsourced and sponsored by for-profit organization
- d. For for-profit research by not-for-profit organization including R&D with the aim of patent acquisition
(*3) The amount of plasmid DNA provided may be lower depending on the plasmid copy number.
(*4) Volume discounts will be offered for the order of 20 tubes or more of multiple resources of the same fee at a time. 20 – 49 tubes, 20% discount. 50 tubes or more, 25% discount.
(*5) Add fees for distribution of large clone sets based on the number of 96-well plates.
Payment
- The invoice (bill) and the payment instruction will be sent to your billing address. The RECIPIENT should prepay the distribution fees before DNA resources to be shipped are prepared.
- There are tow ways of paying as follows.
