UNSPSC 41113039: Osmometer accessories

A device for measuring osmotic pressure. Accessories include products such as sample tubes, stirring wires, sample tips.

UNSPSC 41113039 Osmometer accessories, a Commodity code, appears in state and local procurement activity centered on laboratory testing equipment and supplies — but the recent opportunities tagged under this code diverge sharply from the nominal category. The three posted solicitations involve hemoglobin testing systems (a D-10 HPLC analyzer with rack loader), custom proficiency testing samples for hematology and whole blood chemistry, and ICP-MS instrument consumables for blood lead screening. None directly concern osmometer accessories as such. The issuing bodies are state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC and DSHS) and a public university (University of Wisconsin-Madison). The work solicited spans capital equipment replacement, quality assurance materials, and ongoing consumable supplies for clinical laboratory operations.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Wisconsin. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted two IFBs in early 2026: HHS0017071 for PerkinElmer ICP-MS consumables and supplies (due March 5, 2026, with historical spend of $20,000 to $30,000), and HHS0017310 for a D-10 Hemoglobin Testing System with Rack Loader to replace end-of-life equipment at the South Texas Lab in Harlingen (due May 18, 2026, with historical spend of $45,050 to $80,000). The University of Wisconsin-Madison issued a competitive bid (2026-UWMSN-01287-RFB) for custom-made hematology and whole blood chemistry proficiency testing samples, with responses due April 21, 2026. None of these solicitations carry set-aside designations, though HUB subcontracting plans are encouraged on the Texas procurements. The code shows no material activity aligned to osmometer-specific accessories; vendors pursuing related laboratory analytical equipment and quality assurance supplies may find better categorization in companion UNSPSC families covering laboratory instruments and consumables.
