UNSPSC 41115732: Liquid chromatograph LC fraction collector

Device that supports liquid chromatography systems.

UNSPSC 41115732 Liquid chromatograph LC fraction collector is a Commodity code that covers specialized analytical laboratory equipment and consumables used by state and local forensic, public health, and environmental testing agencies. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through specialized chemical testing equipment, reagents, and accessories — including DNA sequencing systems, genetic analyzers, mass spectrometer components, and related consumables for forensic drug screening, genetic analysis, and controlled-substance detection. Issuing bodies span state-level centralized procurement offices (such as the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division), county sheriff's offices and crime labs, and state forensic and public safety departments that operate laboratory infrastructure. The Texas Department of Public Safety and Texas Department of Parks and Wildlife emerge as substantial repeat users of equipment and supplies in this family based on the most recent solicitations.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, where the Texas Comptroller posted an IFB for proprietary chemical laboratory equipment and supplies with a response date of October 20, 2026, covering DNA analyzers, sequencing kits, quantification standards, and direct ELISA kits for cannabinoid and opioid screening from vendors including Life Technologies (Thermo Fisher Scientific), Promega, Qiagen, Immunalysis (Abbott), and ANDE Corporation, with a four-year contract term and three one-year renewals at the Comptroller's discretion. Brazoria County, Texas conducted a competitive RFP (solicitation #26-48) with a May 12, 2026 response date for acquisition of a Liquid Chromatograph-Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer system for the Sheriff's Office Crime Lab, with sealed bids due through the county's Bonfire electronic platform and hard-copy submission options at the Courthouse Administration Building in Angleton.
