ANNEX

Description of the goods Classification(CN code) Reasons
(1) (2) (3)
Deoxyribonuclease enzyme, with an activity range of 10 000 to 25 000 units/mg, in an aqueous storage buffer of pH 6,5.The product is put up for retail sale for laboratory use in the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). 3507 90 90 Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 3507, 3507 90 and 3507 90 90.The form of preparation of the product enables enzyme activity to be maintained during storage. The product does not contain any other substances apart from the enzyme itself allowing a detection reaction to be carried out. Therefore classification under heading 3822 as a diagnostic or laboratory reagent is excluded.Given the product's composition, it is to be considered a prepared enzyme within the meaning of heading 3507.The product is therefore to be classified under CN code 3507 90 90 as other prepared enzyme not elsewhere specified or included.
