UNSPSC 41106234: Penicylinder

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a small cylinder that can be coated with bacteria as part of scientific experiments with antibiotics in a medical setting Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901920.

UNSPSC 41106234 Penicylinder is a Commodity code with minimal and inconsistent recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal name does not align with the solicitations tagged under it; recent opportunities instead reflect highly specialized laboratory, research, and educational equipment acquisitions across unrelated domains—none of which involve penicylinders or products reasonably characterized by that descriptor.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span research universities (Mississippi State University, University of Southern Mississippi, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Texas A&M University System), state health and environmental agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission on behalf of Department of State Health Services, State of Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services, Michigan Department of Environment Great Lakes and Energy), counties (Brazoria County Texas, Gwinnett County Georgia, Broward County Florida, Santa Clara County California), cities (Philadelphia, Albuquerque), and an independent school district (Klein ISD Texas). Mississippi State University appears as the most active issuer, posting multiple sole-source procurements for research equipment including microscopy systems, wind-tunnel testing apparatus, photobioreactors, EEG systems, rheometers, infiltrometers, fire alarm components, and early childhood learning materials. Geographic spread is concentrated in Mississippi (numerous MSU procurements), with secondary activity in Texas, Oregon, Michigan, California, Georgia, and Florida. Representative opportunities include Mississippi State University's sole-source procurement for a ThermoFisher Scientific Helios 5 Hydra CX DualBeam extreme high-resolution FE-SEM and Spectra 200 S/TEM system (estimated cost $5.186 million, posted June 17, 2026, objection deadline July 1), Brazoria County Texas's RFP for a Liquid Chromatograph-Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer system for the Sheriff's Office Crime Lab (estimated budget $300,000, posted April 15, 2026, proposal due May 12), and Texas Health and Human Services Commission's bid for COLILERT reagents and water bottles for bacteriological testing (annual spend guideline $70,050 to $90,000, posted July 1, 2026, responses due July 8). The code shows no relevant recent activity—procurement notices are plainly misclassified, and the category appears dormant for genuine penicylinder acquisition.
