April 29, 2022: We have upgraded the RRID Portal. This legacy site will still be available for a few weeks. Questions and comments can be submitted via the feedback button on the bottom of the window.
Getting Started
The Resource Identification Portal was created in support of the Resource Identification Initiative, which aims to promote research resource identification, discovery, and reuse. The portal offers a central location for obtaining and exploring Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs) - persistent and unique identifiers for referencing a research resource. This portal relies on the good work of many community repositories such as MGI, Addgene, MMRRC and Cellosaurus. These community databases are the source for RRIDs of their type. If you used a resource, especially one created by your colleagues, please cite it using the RRID, if you created a new resource, we link you to the place where you can deposit that key resource in a community repository. Some examples are shown below, which are linked to metadata about each resource:
Antibody: RRID:AB_90755Plasmid: RRID:Addgene_44362
Organism: RRID:MMRRC_026409-UCD
Cell Line: RRID:CVCL_0033
Tool: RRID:SCR_007358
To ensure they are recognizable, unique, and traceable, identifiers are prefixed with " RRID: ", followed by a second tag that indicates the source authority that provided it (e.g. "AB" for the Antibody Registry, "CVCL" for the Cellosaurus, "MMRRC" for Mutant Mouse Regional Resource Centers, "SCR" for the SciCrunch registry of tools).
