    The company plans to import the listed controlled substances for 
sale to research facilities for drug testing and analysis.
    No comments or objections have been received. DEA has considered 
the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and 952(a) and determined that the 
registration of Sigma Aldrich Manufacturing LLC. to import the basic 
classes of controlled substances is consistent with the public interest 
and with United States obligations under international treaties, 
conventions, or protocols in effect on May 1, 1971, at this time. DEA 
has investigated Sigma Aldrich Manufacturing LLC., to ensure that the 
company's registration is consistent with the public interest. The 
investigation has included inspection and testing of the company's 
physical security systems, verification of the company's compliance 
with state and local laws, and a review of the company's background and 
history. Therefore, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 952(a) and 958(a), and in 
accordance with 21 CFR 1301.34, the above named company is granted 
registration as an importer of the basic classes of controlled
