Reference Buffer Concentration pH 6.99 to 7.01 CAS Number 7778-77-0 Chemical Grade Reagent… and 4 more items

The Florida Department of Corrections awarded a contract on January 27, 2026, with a completion date of March 23, 2026, for the procurement of laboratory and water testing supplies. The contract, valued at $429, encompasses five distinct line items comprising chemical reagents, testing dispensers, and measurement instruments. The primary deliverables include a Reference Buffer Concentration solution (pH 6.99 to 7.01) with National Institute of Standards and Technology certification, two PD250 dispensers for measuring total and free chlorine levels using the diethyl p-phenylenediamine method, a reagent refill for total chlorine testing, and a liquid-in-glass thermometer with a temperature range of 0 to 230 degrees Fahrenheit.

The contract specifications indicate these materials are intended for laboratory applications within the Department of Corrections' operations. The buffer solution is supplied in four units at $15 each, while the chlorine testing dispensers and refill are provided at $128.42 and $99.99 respectively. The thermometer is supplied as a single unit at $12.64. These analytical supplies support water quality monitoring and chemical testing functions necessary for institutional operations. The relatively brief performance timeline of approximately two months suggests this procurement addresses immediate operational requirements.
