UNSPSC 41111769: Lighted mirror agglutination viewer

Agglutination viewer that consists of an under placed magnifying mirror and above placed light to allow for undersurface observation of universal flocculation reactions

UNSPSC 41111769 Lighted mirror agglutination viewer is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure microscopy equipment and related accessories for laboratory, forensic, and research applications. Recent solicitations show universities, state law enforcement agencies, and county governments buying comparison microscopes, optical microscope systems, and microscope training services rather than the narrowly specified agglutination viewers the code name suggests. The issuing bodies are research universities (University of Mississippi, Texas Tech University, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Texas A&M University AgriLife Research), state forensic laboratories (Illinois State Police), and county water resource departments (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners). Solicitation vehicles include ITBs, RFPs, RFQs, and competitive quotes, with awards based on lowest-priced responsive and responsible bidder or best-value evaluation criteria.

Recent procurement activity concentrates in Texas (Texas Tech University RFP 2026-1190 for Research and Development Goods and Services posted May 4, 2026, with proposal deadline April 30, 2026; Texas A&M AgriLife ITB AG-RSCH-ITB-6554 for an Enhanced Darkfield Optical Microscope System, questions deadline January 29, 2026, bids due February 5, 2026), the Midwest (University of Wisconsin-Madison ShopUW+ Event 2026-UWMSN-01294-RFB for microscopes, accessories, and maintenance posted March 12, 2026, response deadline March 26, 2026; University of Mississippi Bid File 1279 for an FTIR Microscope Micro-sampling and Chemical Imaging System, bids due June 18, 2026), Illinois (Illinois State Police IFB 26-493ISP-FOREN-B-51686 for comparison microscopes, bids due June 18, 2026, with ten-year potential contract term and fixed pricing), and Florida (Hillsborough County Water Resources Department competitive quote ITQ2600183 for Motic Trinocular Microscope Training, estimated at $21,000, due March 19, 2026). Vendors should note that equipment purchases often include delivery, installation, training, and performance verification at multiple customer locations, and that research universities frequently require HUB compliance and comprehensive IT security and accessibility addenda.
