UNSPSC 41115721: Fast protein liquid chromatography FPLC system

A type of column chromatography system used to separate or purify proteins from complex mixtures. It is very commonly used in biochemistry and enzymology.

UNSPSC 41115721 Fast protein liquid chromatography FPLC system is a Commodity code that covers specialized laboratory analytical instrumentation and consumables for forensic, genetic, and chemical analysis. State and local governments procure genetic analyzers, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry systems, and branded consumables such as sequencing kits, DNA quantification standards, and immunoassay reagents for use in crime labs, public safety forensic operations, and wildlife management facilities. The issuing bodies include state procurement divisions managing multi-agency statewide contracts, county sheriffs' offices, and state departments of public safety and natural resources.

Recent activity is concentrated in Texas. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division issued IFB 304T-27-175A1.1 (Proprietary Chemical Laboratory Equipment and Supplies), due October 20, 2026, to supply forensic consumables and genetic analysis reagents—including RapidHIT ID system cartridges, sequencing kits, and drug-screening ELISA kits manufactured by Life Technologies Corp., Promega, Qiagen, Immunalysis Corporation, and ANDE Corporation—for the Texas Department of Public Safety and Parks and Wildlife statewide. Brazoria County, Texas issued RFP #26-48 (Acquisition of a Liquid Chromatograph-Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer), due May 12, 2026, for a specialized LC-QQQ analytical instrument for the Sheriff's Office Crime Lab. Contracts under this code typically run one to four years with renewal options, include firm fixed pricing with statewide or county-wide delivery, require cold-chain storage compliance and compatibility with specific analytical platforms, and carry minimum insurance and warranty obligations.
