NIGP 49335: Fluorometers and Spectrofluorometers

NIGP 49335 Fluorometers And Spectrofluorometers is an Item code covering laboratory analytical instruments that measure fluorescence emission from samples, used by state and local environmental, health, and research agencies to detect and quantify substances in water quality, clinical diagnostics, and materials testing. State and local governments procure these instruments for public health laboratories, water treatment facilities, environmental monitoring programs, and university research centers operated under state or municipal authority. Equipment typically ranges from benchtop analytical models to portable field instruments, with procurement driven by regulatory compliance (water quality standards, drinking water testing), disease surveillance, and research initiatives in state departments of health, environmental protection, and natural resources.

The source provided contains no recent state or local contract opportunities for fluorometers and spectrofluorometers. Without posted RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB records, geographic concentration and issuing-body activity cannot be characterized from current procurement signals. Business development professionals evaluating this code should monitor solicitation channels in state environmental and health agency procurement offices, as demand is typically episodic and tied to equipment replacement cycles, grant funding availability, and regulatory mandate changes rather than continuous posting activity.
