Export Controls

List of Export Controlled Pathogens (Toxins, Viruses, Bacteria and Fungi)

| A  | B  | C  | D  | E  | F  | G  | H  | I  | J  | K  | L  | M | | N  | O  | P  | Q  | R  | S  | T  | U  | V  | W  | X  | Y  | Z | | Toxins |

Department of Commerce dual-use export control-listed pathogens and toxins are listed below. These pathogens and toxins are found on the Commerce Control List (CCL) in Category 1 at ECCNs 1C351 through 1C360. Severe civil and/or criminal penalties apply to international shipments of ANY export controlled pathogen without an export license. Please contact Stanford's Export Control Officer if your research requires an export controlled pathogen to be sent outside of the US so that an export license application can be prepared.

Please note that, in addition to the below-listed dual-use pathogens, the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) controls certain military-related toxins and pathogens at Category XIV of the US Munitions List (USML). The ITAR treats as a defense article any "biological agent or biologically derived substance specifically developed or modified to increase its capability to produce casualties in humans or livestock or to degrade equipment or damage crops". These ITAR export control-listed biological agents/substances will also require an export license. Furthermore, foreign nationals may not access ITAR-controlled biological agents/substances or their proprietary or disclosure-restricted technologies in the US without government approval.

In the unlikely event that you require access to a proprietary or disclosure-restricted ITAR controlled biological agent at Stanford, you MUST first contact Steve Eisner in the Office of the Dean of Research (steve.eisner@stanford.edu, 724-7072) before any disclosure-restricted defense article is brought onto Stanford premises.
