UNSPSC 12141604: Europium Eu

UNSPSC 12141604 Europium Eu (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The source records show no solicitations for europium or rare-earth element purchases; instead, the opportunities tagged to this code involve forensic laboratory consumables, drug-screening reagents, water-treatment chemicals, and diagnostic testing kits — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of europium procurement. The mismatch suggests either classification error in the underlying procurement notices or that the Commodity code is not in active use for state and local buying at this time.

The most substantial recent opportunity is a Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts statewide indefinite-delivery contract (IFB 304T27175A11, due October 20, 2026) for forensic laboratory supplies including DNA analyzer components, sequencing kits, and drug-screening consumables from Life Technologies, Promega, Qiagen, Abbott, and ANDE Corporation, serving the Texas Department of Public Safety and Texas Department of Parks and Wildlife. Additional forensic and laboratory procurement activity appears in California (Shiga Toxin QuikChek diagnostic kits, RFB IS27200197), the District of Columbia (Next-Generation Sequencing consumables), Harris County, Texas (crime scene and DNA collection supplies, ITB 250415), and the City of Arlington, Texas (laboratory supplies for water treatment operations). Water utilities are also active buyers — the City of Meriden, Connecticut solicited treatment chemicals including sodium permanganate and phosphate blends under ITB B026-55, and Gwinnett County, Georgia requested hydrogen peroxide. No evidence of europium procurement across these jurisdictions exists in the source material.
