Overview
Medicinal Genomics offers a selection of laboratory consumables — including plastic plates, seals, and related plasticware — through our webstore as a convenience to our customers. These items are the same consumables validated and used in our published methods and workflows.
This article explains our consumables program, purchasing considerations, and the quality management obligations that apply when customers choose to source equivalent consumables from alternative suppliers.
Why We Offer Consumables
Consumables are offered as a value-added service to streamline procurement for our customers. By sourcing the same plasticware used during method development and validation, customers can reduce the risk of performance variability introduced by material substitutions.
Important purchasing notes:
- No profit margin: Medicinal Genomics does not profit from the sale of consumables. These items are offered at or near cost as a convenience service.
- Price fluctuations: Pricing is subject to change based on supplier costs. Medicinal Genomics cannot control or guarantee pricing stability for consumable items.
- Inventory: While we make every effort to maintain adequate stock levels, inventory availability cannot be guaranteed. Some items ship directly from the manufacturer. Customers with time-sensitive requirements are encouraged to maintain their own safety stock.
- Shipping: Consumables normally ship with Ground service to control costs. Same-day or expedited shipment may not always be available. As some items are drop shipped directly from the manufacturer, we cannot always control turnaround time or shipping method.
Use of Alternative Consumable Suppliers
Customers are not required to purchase consumables through Medicinal Genomics. However, the consumables listed on our webstore represent the specific materials evaluated and validated during development of our methods and assays. Users may choose to deviate from these consumables at their own risk and are responsible for following their own internal procedures for reagent and consumable qualification when substituting materials not validated by Medicinal Genomics.
