Material Transfer Agreements Clause Samples
A Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) is a legal contract that governs the transfer of tangible research materials between two organizations or individuals. It outlines the terms under which materials such as biological samples, chemical compounds, or data are provided, specifying permitted uses, restrictions, intellectual property rights, and obligations regarding confidentiality or publication. By clearly defining the rights and responsibilities of both the provider and recipient, an MTA helps prevent misunderstandings, protects proprietary interests, and ensures compliance with legal and ethical standards during collaborative research.

Material Transfer Agreements. Materials, for example biological materials, are often distributed by scientists to their colleagues for a variety of purposes, such as duplication and confirmation of experimental results or evaluation of the material for alternate uses. Such intellectual property is an important factor in attracting research funding. For this reason, the university will help academic personnel review Material Transfer Agreements [MTAs] and other agreements that arise out of their interaction with industry. All such agreements must be approved by the Associate ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Research. In all cases, the university requires researchers to sign an MTA to ensure that these materials are used only for scientific research and not for commercial applications. If the material is being transferred for commercial application, its use shall be governed by a license agreement. Each MTA requires university authorization and an authorized university signature. academic personnel must enter into an MTA prior to distributing or receiving any such materials. Because MTAs often contain restrictions on intellectual property and publication, all MTAs must be submitted to the Associate ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Research for review. If the terms and conditions of the MTA are unacceptable to the university, the Associate ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Research, in consultation with the researcher, will attempt to negotiate other terms acceptable to all parties.

Material Transfer Agreements. Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs) govern the transfer of one or more materials from the owner (or authorised licensee) (‘the provider’) to a third party (‘the recipient’) who may wish to use the material for research purposes. Materials can include cultures, cell lines, plasmids, nucleotides, proteins, bacteria, transgenic animals, pharmaceuticals, other chemicals, alloys and other materials with scientific or commercial value.
Material Transfer Agreements. Material Transfer Agreements govern the transfer of tangible research materials between the University and another company or institution. The Material Transfer Agreement defines the rights of the provider and the recipient with respect to the materials and any derivatives. It typically covers liability, confidentiality, and other relevant terms. Biological substances are the most frequently transferred materials, but Material Transfer Agreements may also be used for other types of materials, such as chemical compounds and even some types of software. The parties to the agreement must consider the facts of each situation in the negotiations of appropriate terms. Where to Start: For assistance with Material Transfer Agreements where the University will be the recipient of incoming materials, contact the Office of Sponsored Programs and Research Administration (OSPRA). If the University is purchasing the materials, consult the Purchasing Division. For assistance with Material Transfer Agreements where the University will be the provider of materials, contact the Office of Technology Management (OTM). a document and not its name determines whether it is an enforceable contract. Typically an MOU or MOA should be used when the parties want to document their intention to enter into a binding contract. In other words, the MOU will serve as the basis of a future formal contract. Sometimes the University will use an MOU or MOA to document arrangements between departments or units within the University. Keep in mind, however, that many parties, including foreign institutions, will issue a document titled “MOA” or “MOU” that contains legally binding obligations. An MOU or MOA must be routed, reviewed, approved and signed according to the same policies and procedures governing contracts. In addition, all MOU’s and ▇▇▇’s must be approved by the Chancellor’s Office. Where to Start: For assistance in determining whether an MOU/MOA is appropriate, contact the AVP Office or University Counsel.
