Biomedical Research Store
After much consideration, the Biomedical Research Store has made the decision to stop ordering from Lonza due to continued difficulties with their program. We will be working to remove the Lonza items off our website. Any customers with pending orders will be contacted individually. We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope that comparable products might be found among the many items we can order from one of our other vendors. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions you may have.
The Biomedical Research Stores are open for pre-ordered pickups only, and currently operating with a no-appointment system for order pickup. As part of this program, customers will submit all orders (except ethanol) using our order form and once fulfilled by our customer service team, we will contact you to let you know that your order is ready for pickup during the times we have listed below. For ethanol orders, please continue to use the required ethanol purchase form.
Order pickup hours will be adjusted to provide you with more flexibility.
- Order pickup hours will be 9:15 am – 11:45 am (closed for lunch) 12:45 pm – 4:15 pm Monday through Thursday and 9:15 am – 11:45 am (closed for lunch) 12:45 pm – 3:15 pm on Friday.
Although many campus buildings allow for entry without MCard access, it is still required for the NCRC. Please make sure you have MCard access to pick up your order.
Please also complete the ResponsibleBLUE survey (with a green check) prior to entering the building for order pick-up.
If you have any questions, please contact our customer service team at bmrs1@umich.edu or by calling the location directly.

Our Process
Browse Products
Browse our complete products list and filter by your desired location to find out what is carried on hand at the Biomedical Research Store nearest you, or search for an individual product using the catalog number, description, or vendor. All you need to purchase from the Store is a MiCores account, an associated lab and Shortcode authorizations.

Pick-Up Procedures
All orders at the Biomedical Research Store will be via pick up for the foreseeable future, including special orders (delivery is still available at NCRC only). Placing a pick-up order is similar to our process for placing special orders (ethanol orders should continue using the required customer ethanol order form).
Visit our Pickup Procedures page to learn more.
MiCORES
Biomedical Research Store transitioned to MiCores, an online system from Agilent Technologies designed to streamline the process of ordering and billing for core purchases. The Store will be using the system for billing purposes only.
To get started, detailed instructions are available on the MiCores Learning Site.
