1: In the case of an open deposit, the strains appear in the catalogue of the BRC, which is the depositary, but does not become the owner. If commercial applications were obtained from research using the strain(s), a fair and equitable return will be ensured to the DEPOSITOR on the basis of the ABS regulations in force.

2: The strains do not appear in the BRC catalogue and are not distributed. This type of contract is paid for and managed as a service.
