UNSPSC 41104115: Serum Filter collection containers

UNSPSC 41104115 Serum Filter collection containers is a Commodity code that in state and local procurement covers biological specimen collection and containment systems, including DNA collection kits and related evidence-handling apparatus. The State of Nebraska Department of Administrative Services recently solicited DNA Database Buccal Collection Kits for the Nebraska State Patrol Crime Laboratory under ITB 125399OR, specifying complete kits with collection devices, instruction sheets, nitrile gloves, fingerprint strips, collection bags, sample envelopes, evidence seals, and shipping seals — all engineered to forensic chain-of-custody standards. State purchasing bureaus and law enforcement agencies constitute the primary buyers under this code, driven by criminal justice infrastructure and DNA database maintenance requirements.

The most recent relevant activity is concentrated in the Upper Midwest and Southeast. Nebraska's Department of Administrative Services issued the DNA collection kits ITB on July 29, 2026, with bids due July 24, 2026, specifying approximately 7,500 kits annually under a four-year initial term with four optional one-year renewals, F.O.B. destination within forty-five calendar days of order, and late-delivery penalties of fifteen percent. A second opportunity posted by Orange County, Florida for bridge replacement (Y26-742, due July 7, 2026, estimated cost $6,202,246.05) appears unrelated to the code's forensic-collection scope and likely represents a miscoding in the source data; no other recent state or local activity appears in the available records for serum or biological collection containers under this code.
