Import Tips
• Include NIST-traceable calibration data; classify as 'other' liquid chromatographs only if not electrophoresis instruments
• Pre-clear with FDA registration if for drug testing applications; provide proof of lab-use intent
• Avoid pitfalls by separating consumables (columns) from instrument in declarations to prevent set classification
