UNSPSC 41115723: Supercritical fluid chromatograph

An analysis device that is designed for separation and determination of the compounds by using the supercritical fluid as mobile phase.

UNSPSC 41115723 Supercritical fluid chromatograph is a Commodity code covering specialized analytical laboratory instrumentation and consumables purchased by state and local agencies for forensic, toxicology, and chemical analysis work. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying both capital equipment and proprietary reagent/consumable kits under this code — including genetic analyzers, mass spectrometers, DNA sequencing supplies, drug screening cartridges, and laboratory reagents manufactured by Life Technologies, Promega, Qiagen, Abbott, and ANDE Corporation. The mix of issuing bodies includes state-level procurement divisions (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts acting for the Texas Department of Public Safety and Department of Parks and Wildlife) and county sheriffs' offices operating crime laboratories, with the state procurement division managing statewide consumables contracts and counties pursuing equipment acquisitions.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, with the Texas Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division posting an IFB on September 23, 2026, for proprietary chemical laboratory equipment and supplies (Solicitation 304T-27-175A1.1, due October 20, 2026) covering DNA analysis kits, forensic reagents, and drug screening consumables across 50 line items with four-year volume commitments and a contract term through October 31, 2027, plus three one-year renewals. Brazoria County, Texas conducted an RFP (Solicitation 26-48, due May 12, 2026) for a Liquid Chromatograph-Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer system for the Sheriff's Office Crime Lab through electronic bidding on the Bonfire platform. The state contract specifies firm pricing, all-inclusive FOB Destination shipping, and a 1.5% administrative fee; county-level procurements appear to follow individual equipment specifications and county purchasing protocols without publicly disclosed budget constraints or set-aside designations in the available notices.
