3822 Diagnostic or laboratory reagents on a substrate, prepared diagnostic or laboratory reagents on or without a substrate, other than goods of heading 3002 or 3006; certified reference materials

This heading includes diagnostic or laboratory reagents on a substrate, ready-made diagnostic or laboratory reagents other than diagnostic reagents of heading 3002, diagnostic reagents intended for administration to patients, and blood type reagents of heading 3006. Diagnostic reagents are used for the assessment of physical, biological or biochemical processes and conditions of the human or animal organism; their operation is based on the measurement or observation of changes occurring in the biological or chemical substances contained in the reagent. The finished diagnostic reagents of this heading may be similar to those intended to be administered to patients (subheading 3006 30), except that they are used for in vitro rather than in vivo use. Prepared laboratory reagents

include not only diagnostic reagents but also other analytical reagents used for purposes other than the detection or diagnosis of something. Prepared diagnostic or laboratory reagents may be used in medical, veterinary, scientific or industrial laboratories, in hospitals, in industry, in field laboratories or, in some cases, in the home. The reagents of this heading on a backing or in the form of preparations contain more than one component. For example, they may consist of a mixture of two or more reagents dissolved in solvents other than water. They may also be in the form of paper, plastics or other materials (used as a backing or support) impregnated or coated with one or more diagnostic or laboratory reagents, e.g., litmus paper, pH or polarity indicator paper, plates pre-coated with reagents for immunoassay. The reagents of this heading may be put up in the form of kits consisting of several components, even if one or more of the components are separate chemically defined compounds of Chapter 28 or 29, synthetic colouring matter of heading 3204 or any other substance which, if presented separately, would fall in its appropriate heading. Examples of such kits are those for determining glucose in the blood, ketones in the urine, etc., as well as enzyme-based kits. However, diagnostic kits having the character of goods of heading 3002 or 3006 (e.g., those based on monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies) are excluded from this heading. The reagents of this heading must be clearly identifiable as being for use only as diagnostic or laboratory reagents. Their composition, labelling, instructions for in vitro or laboratory use, the comparison scale for the test or samples (e.g., presented on a backing or support) must be indicated. Except for the goods of Chapter 28 or 29, for the classification of certified reference materials heading 382 2 takes precedence over any other heading of the Nomenclature. The certified reference materials of this heading are reference materials prepared for the calibration of an apparatus, the assessment of a measurement method or the determination of unknown values. These reference materials may consist of: (a) matrix materials to which analytes have been added in precisely determined concentrations; (b) unmixed materials some components of which have a precisely determined concentration (e.g., the protein and fat content in milk powder); (c) natural or synthetic materials some properties of which have been precisely determined (e.g., tensile strength, specific gravity). These reference materials must be accompanied by a certificate, authenticated by the authorities, stating the values of the properties of the certified materials, the methods used to determine these values and the measurement uncertainty of each value. The heading also excludes the following reagents, whether or not put up in forms for use as diagnostic or laboratory reagents: (a) goods of headings 2843 - 2846 and 2852 (see Note 1 to Section VI); (b) goods referred to in Note 1 to Chapter 28 or in Note 1 to Chapter 29; (c) colouring matter of heading 3204, including the products referred to in Note 3 to Chapter 32;

(d) media cultured ready to grow or sustain microorganisms (including viruses and the like) or plant, human or animal cells (heading 3821).

2. (A) For the purpose of heading 3822, the expression ‘certified reference materials’ means reference materials which are accompanied by a certificate which indicates the values of the certified properties, the methods used to determine these values and the degree of certainty associated with each value and which are suitable for analytical, calibrating or referencing purposes.

(B) With the exception of the products of Chapter 28 or 29, for the classification of certified reference materials, heading 3822 shall take precedence over any other heading in the nomenclature.

3. Heading 3824 includes the following goods which are not to be classified in any other heading of the nomenclature:
