UNSPSC 41102924: Automated tissue cassette labeler

Automated tissue cassette labelers and their accessories and supplies

UNSPSC 41102924 Automated tissue cassette labeler is a Commodity code that encompasses laboratory automation equipment and services supporting histology operations in medical examiner offices, forensic pathology labs, and other public health entities. State and local governments procure under this code to support tissue specimen processing, analysis, and documentation workflows in coroner and medical examiner operations, forensic labs, and public health laboratory settings. Recent solicitations show demand for both equipment-focused procurements and the broader histology services that depend on such automation, with issuing bodies including state criminal investigation bureaus, county medical examiner offices, and related public health entities. The scope extends beyond labeling equipment alone to encompass the full tissue cassette and specimen-processing workflow, including embedding, cutting, staining, and analysis services that require cassette identification and tracking systems.
