Research Catalog

Browse research-use-only material by type and category. Six material types, eight categories, 99 items, organised so you can find something in seconds instead of scrolling.

Topics: research use only catalog · research use only catalog · RUO product list · research peptide catalog · research material categories · research use only supplier list · peptide catalog by type · research compound directory

What does "research use only" mean? It is a labelling designation marking material as intended for laboratory research and explicitly not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. It describes intended use, not quality, and it does not create a category of permitted use in people.
How many items are in the catalog? Ninety-nine, across six material types — peptides, oral supplements, vitamins and enzymes, nasal spray, topical cosmetic, and supplies — and eight categories.
Does the catalog show prices? No. Pricing and ordering sit with the supplying partner under their own terms, and pricing varies by tier. Each item links to the partner portal where your tier pricing applies.
Do I need an account to browse it? Yes. The catalog sits inside the free provider account. Creating one takes under a minute and there is no fee.

Reconstitution Calculator

Work out concentration, draw volume and syringe units for lyophilised research material. Enter the vial amount and diluent volume; get mg/mL, mcg/mL, units and draws per vial.

Topics: reconstitution calculator · reconstitution calculator · peptide reconstitution calculator · lyophilised powder calculator · mg per mL calculator · syringe unit conversion · vial concentration calculator · bacteriostatic water calculator · how many units in a vial

How do I calculate concentration after reconstitution? Divide the mass in the vial by the volume of diluent added. Ten milligrams into two millilitres gives 5 mg/mL, or 5,000 mcg/mL. The calculator does both conversions at once.
How do I convert millilitres to syringe units? Multiply the volume in millilitres by the units per millilitre on your syringe. On a U-100 syringe, 0.05 mL is 5 units. The calculator asks which syringe you are using and answers in its units.
Does this tell me how much to use? No. It reports arithmetic only. It does not recommend amounts, schedules or routes, and nothing it returns is guidance of any kind.
What is bacteriostatic water used for here? It is one of the diluents used to reconstitute lyophilised material. The calculator does not care which diluent you enter — it works from the volume you tell it.

Unit Converter

Convert between milligrams, micrograms, nanograms, grams, litres, millilitres and microlitres. Keeps a running tape so you can check your work.

Topics: mg to mcg converter · mg to mcg converter · microgram to milligram calculator · mcg to mg · mL to microlitre converter · mass unit converter · lab unit conversion tool · nanogram converter

How many micrograms are in a milligram? One thousand. One milligram equals 1,000 micrograms, and one microgram equals 0.001 milligrams.
How do I convert mcg to mg? Divide by 1,000. So 250 mcg is 0.25 mg. Enter the figure and pick the units and the converter shows it directly.
Can it convert mass into volume? No, and deliberately so. Mass and volume are separate scales; converting between them requires a concentration. Use the reconstitution calculator for that.

Margin & Cost Calculator

Work out profit per item, margin, markup, batch totals and break-even units including fixed costs. Built for practice and supply economics.

Topics: margin calculator · margin calculator · markup vs margin calculator · break even calculator · profit margin calculator business · cost price margin tool · batch cost calculator · gross margin percentage

What is the difference between margin and markup? Markup is profit as a percentage of your cost. Margin is profit as a percentage of your price. Buying at $100 and selling at $200 is a 100% markup and a 50% margin — same money, very different numbers.
How do I calculate break-even? Divide fixed costs by profit per unit. If fixed costs are $2,000 and you make $130 per unit, you break even at 16 units. The calculator rounds up, because you cannot sell a fraction.
What margin should I target? That depends entirely on your costs, market and volume, and this tool does not offer an opinion. It reports the arithmetic for the numbers you enter.

Body Metrics

Calculate BMI, body surface area by Mosteller and Du Bois, and Devine reference mass. Metric or US units. Numbers only, with no interpretation.

Topics: body surface area calculator · body surface area calculator · BSA Mosteller formula · Du Bois BSA calculator · BMI calculator metric imperial · Devine ideal body weight formula · BSA m2 calculator

What is the Mosteller formula for body surface area? BSA in square metres equals the square root of height in centimetres multiplied by mass in kilograms, divided by 3,600. It is the simplest of the accepted formulae and the easiest to check by hand.
Why do Mosteller and Du Bois give different answers? They are different empirical fits to different reference populations. Differences of a few percent are normal. The calculator shows both rather than implying one is authoritative.
Does this tool interpret BMI? No. It returns the number and stops there. It offers no category, threshold or interpretation, and nothing it reports is health guidance.

Quick Links

Put every supplier portal, lab login and partner site on one dashboard as reorderable cards with their own notes. Alphabetical by default, arranged by you after that.

Topics: bookmark dashboard for business · bookmark dashboard for business · link organiser dashboard · supplier portal login manager · custom start page business · quick links dashboard tool · organise work logins

Can I reorder the cards? Yes. They sort alphabetically until you drag one, at which point your arrangement is saved. A reset returns them to A–Z.
Where does the site icon come from? It is resolved from the site itself — the page's declared icon first, then its favicon file. If a site has neither, the card falls back to its initials rather than a broken image.
Can I add notes to a link? Every card carries its own notes field, shown on the card. It is the right place for an account number or a reminder about reorder timing.

Inventory Log

Track what you hold by lot, quantity and expiry with reorder points. Simple enough to actually keep up to date when you are busy.

Topics: inventory log with lot tracking · inventory log with lot tracking · lot number tracking spreadsheet alternative · reorder point tracker · expiry date tracking tool · small business inventory log · supply tracking by lot

Why track lot numbers? A lot number is the only way to connect material you hold back to a specific shipment and supplier. If a question arises later — about condition, documentation or a discrepancy — it is what makes the answer findable.
Does it warn me before something expires? Expiry is shown on every row and anything within sixty days is flagged, with anything already past marked clearly.
Can I track quantities in different units? Yes. Each item carries its own unit — vials, millilitres, tablets — so the number always reads correctly for that item.

Contact Book

Keep suppliers, labs, partners and reps in one searchable list with roles, direct contacts and notes. Not buried in a phone, not scattered across email.

Topics: supplier contact management · supplier contact management · vendor contact list tool · business contact book · rep contact tracker · lab contact directory · simple CRM for suppliers

How is this different from my phone contacts? It is shared with your account rather than a device, it carries company and role alongside the name, and it has a notes field for the context that phone contacts have nowhere to put.
Can I search across all fields? Yes. One search field matches on name, company, role, email, phone and notes at once.

Document Vault

Track licences, certificates and agreements with issue and expiry dates. Anything expiring within sixty days is flagged, and anything already past is marked.

Topics: licence expiry tracker · licence expiry tracker · certificate expiration tracking · document renewal reminder tool · compliance document tracker · business licence management · contract expiry tracking

How far ahead does it warn me? Anything expiring within sixty days is flagged on the row, and anything already past its date is marked as expired.
Can I store the actual documents here? Each entry holds a link rather than the file itself, so your documents stay wherever you already keep them and this remains the index.
What kinds of documents should I track? Anything with a date on it that would cause a problem if it lapsed — licences, registrations, insurance, certificates and agreements are the usual set.

Template Library

Adaptable templates for supplier intake, receiving and lot logs, record retention schedules, vendor reviews, onboarding runbooks and incident logs.

Topics: supplier intake template · supplier intake template · receiving log template · record retention schedule template · vendor review template · employee onboarding checklist template · incident log template · business process templates

What templates are included? Supplier intake checklist, receiving and lot log, record retention schedule, quarterly vendor review, new team member runbook, and an incident and deviation log.
Can I edit them? They are intended to be edited. Copy or download any of them as plain text and adapt to how you actually work.
Are these legally compliant documents? No. They are organisational starting points, not legal or regulatory advice. Check your retention periods and obligations against the rules that apply to you.

SOP Builder

Write standard operating procedures and keep them versioned. Every edit steps the version so you can see a procedure has changed since it was last read.

Topics: SOP builder software · SOP builder software · standard operating procedure template tool · write SOPs online · procedure version control · SOP management small business · document procedures tool

How does versioning work? Each procedure carries a version number that increments on every save, alongside the date it was last updated. It is a signal that something changed, not a full revision history.
What should I write an SOP for first? The thing you explain most often. If you have described the same process out loud three times this month, that is the one.
Can my team see them? Procedures belong to the account that wrote them. Team-wide sharing is on the roadmap rather than built today.

Network Referrals

Referrals routed to you from across the network, with the context needed to follow up, and an email when one arrives.

Topics: referral network for providers · referral network for providers · business referral tracking · inbound lead routing · partner referral management · referral dashboard

Where do referrals come from? From across the partner network — other sites and partners routing an enquiry to a provider who can help.
Am I notified? Yes, by email as well as in the dashboard, so a referral does not sit unseen.

Partner Sites

Direct access to every partner portal in the network from inside your back office, with no separate bookmarks to maintain.

Topics: partner portal directory · partner portal directory · supplier portal access · network partner links · vendor portal quick access

Do new partners appear automatically? Yes. The list is maintained centrally, so partners added to the network show up without you doing anything.

Wholesale Portal

Run a white-labelled ordering portal under your own name, colour and web address. Choose which items you list, set your own prices, and take enquiries directly.

Topics: white label wholesale portal · white label wholesale portal · branded ordering portal · private label supply portal · wholesale portal for providers · custom branded storefront · white label ordering platform

What is a white-label portal? A storefront that carries your brand rather than the platform's. Visitors see your name, colour and contact details; the software behind it is invisible to them.
Can I set my own prices? Yes, per item. You can also list an item without a price if you would rather handle that in conversation.
Do people need an account to use my portal? No. Your portal is public and takes enquiries from anyone. The request comes to you, and you decide what happens next.
What is the utilisation fee? A percentage applied to activity through your portal, which you set. It is stored in basis points so the figure is held exactly.

Research Assistant

Search the research catalog alongside your own inventory, contacts and procedures from one field. No third party involved unless you connect a model.

Topics: search business records and catalog · search business records assistant · AI assistant for business records · inventory search tool · unified business search · catalog search assistant

Does my data get sent to an AI provider? Not unless a model is connected. By default the assistant searches locally and no third party is involved at all.
What will it refuse to do? It will not discuss administering anything to a person or animal, suggest an amount, schedule or route, or describe an effect or benefit of any material.
What can it actually help with? Finding items in the catalog, locating something in your inventory or contacts, pointing to the right procedure, drafting administrative text and doing arithmetic.

Programme ROI

Model a programme month by month with retention applied. See revenue, cost, profit and how participant numbers decay over the run.

Topics: programme ROI calculator · program ROI calculator · membership retention model · churn revenue calculator · recurring revenue projection tool · retention forecast calculator · subscription profit model

How is retention applied? It compounds monthly. Starting with 25 participants at 80% retention leaves 20 after one month, 16 after two, and so on for the length of the run.
Why does profit fall even when revenue looks fine? Because overhead is charged every month while participant numbers decay. The month where those two lines cross is usually the useful thing to find.

QR & Link Builder

Create short links with click tracking and generate a QR code for any of them. Codes render in your browser, so the link never leaves it.

Topics: QR code generator with tracking · QR code generator with tracking · short link with click tracking · trackable QR code business · custom short link tool · URL shortener with analytics · free QR code download PNG

Are the QR codes trackable? Yes, when generated from one of your short links. The code points at the short link, and every scan counts as a click.
Can I choose the short link name? Yes, or leave it blank and a short random one is generated. Names must be three to forty characters and cannot shadow a system path.
Do QR codes expire? No. The code encodes the short link, and the short link keeps working until you delete it.

Education Library

Plain-language explainers on what research use only means, how to read a certificate of analysis, storage and lot records, and organising a back office.

Topics: what does research use only mean · what does research use only mean · how to read a certificate of analysis · CoA explained · lot number record keeping · research material storage guidance · RUO labelling explained

What does research use only actually mean? It is a labelling designation marking material as intended for laboratory research and not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. It describes intended use rather than quality, and it narrows permitted use rather than widening it.
What should I look for on a certificate of analysis? The lot number first, since everything else applies only to that lot. Then identity, purity with the method named, and whether results fall inside any stated specification range.

Research Use Only

What the research use only designation means, what it does and does not permit, how it appears on labelling and certificates, and how to keep records that match it.

Topics: research use only · research use only · RUO meaning · what does research use only mean · research use only vs clinical use · RUO labelling requirements · research use only products · RUO designation explained · research use only certificate of analysis · RUO record keeping

What does "research use only" mean? It is a labelling designation indicating that material is intended for laboratory research and not for diagnostic or therapeutic use in humans or animals. It describes intended use, not quality.
Does research use only mean lower quality? No. The designation says nothing about purity or manufacturing standard. Quality is evidenced by documentation — a certificate of analysis for the specific lot, a stated purity with the method named — not by the label.
Can research use only material be used in people? No. The designation explicitly excludes diagnostic and therapeutic use. It narrows intended use rather than granting permission for it.
What is the difference between RUO and clinical grade? They describe different intended uses and different regulatory pathways. RUO material is labelled for laboratory research; material intended for use in people goes through an approval process that RUO material has not.
What records should I keep for RUO material? At minimum the lot number, date received, quantity, condition on arrival, storage location and expiry. The lot number matters most, because it is the only handle connecting material back to a shipment and supplier.
Does a certificate of analysis make material safe to use? No. A CoA is a measurement record for one lot, reporting identity, purity and physical characteristics. It answers what is in that lot and says nothing about suitability for any use.
