I.M.A.G.E. clones and associated products may be obtained from any of our authorized distributors. On-line ordering through the WWW (or by email) is encouraged. To aid us in tracking I.M.A.G.E. resource use, distributors periodically inform the I.M.A.G.E.

A Good Faith Agreement governs the usage of I.M.A.G.E. clones and associated products. The wording of the original document was revised in 9/00; the current agreement is now available and covers all I.M.A.G.E. clones and products retroactive to the beginning of the project.
I.M.A.G.E. downloads and parses GenBank records to find entries regarding I.M.A.G.E. clones. Groups sequencing I.M.A.G.E. clones can help us with this task by trying to conform to a few standards with respect to the format they use when submitting sequences. A Genbank Suggested Format document gives further details.
