UNSPSC 41111978: Manual microhematocrit tube reader

Device for manual reading and measurement of blood hematocrit level from spun microhematocrit tubes

UNSPSC 41111978 Manual microhematocrit tube reader is a Commodity code with little recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its scope. The five recent opportunities associated with this code span water infrastructure equipment (color video pipeline inspection and sewer cleaning units from the City of Atlanta), educational instructional materials and equipment across multiple disciplines (Klein Independent School District), laboratory scientific instruments (a bore scanner and lock-in amplifier from Texas A&M University System, and an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency), none of which match the nominal scope of manual microhematocrit readers used in clinical laboratory blood analysis. The issuing bodies include a large city department of watershed management, an independent school district, a state university system, and a state environmental agency — a heterogeneous mix reflecting opportunistic code assignment rather than coherent procurement activity within the code's intended product line.

Geographic activity spans Texas (Klein ISD in Harris County and Texas A&M University System), Georgia (City of Atlanta), and Illinois (IEPA in St. Clair County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management IFB GS/DWM/2604-1260190 for color video pipeline inspection systems with a bid due date of June 23, 2026; Klein Independent School District RFP 26-101 for Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics resources with proposals due June 5, 2026; and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency IFB 26-532EPA-LAB53-B-50817 for an ICP-MS system with bids due February 17, 2026. The code shows no traceable pattern of state and local demand for manual microhematocrit tube readers, and business development professionals should verify actual procurement activity in clinical laboratory or healthcare purchasing channels rather than rely on this code as a reliable procurement signal.
