UNSPSC 41103328: Vacuum based pipette aspirator system

Vacuum system utilized for the aspiration of chemicals, cell culture media, or other liquids by the use of serological, aspirating or transfer pipettes and pipette tips inserted into the vacuum tubing

UNSPSC 41103328 Vacuum based pipette aspirator system is a Commodity code that covers automated liquid-handling equipment used in laboratory and clinical settings to aspirate samples and reagents with vacuum pressure. State and local government procurement under this code reflects purchases by public health laboratories, medical examiner offices, state university research facilities, and hospital systems operated by county health departments. The equipment typically includes manual or motorized pipette systems integrated with vacuum pumps, collection vessels, and disposal containers, often deployed in high-throughput screening, sample processing, and diagnostic workflows where repetitive aspiration tasks would otherwise require significant manual labor or pose ergonomic risk to laboratory staff.

The source provides no recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code, limiting visibility into current geographic concentration, issuing-body patterns, or representative procurement activity. Without posted solicitations, response dates, or named buyers, assess this code as a low-activity category in state and local procurement channels; when purchases do occur, they typically flow through university purchasing departments, county health system contracts, or standing laboratory equipment agreements rather than through open competitive solicitation. Monitor state university system RFQs and health department capital equipment notices for emerging activity, particularly in states with large public research institutions or centralized state laboratory networks.
