UNSPSC 41116010: Immunology analyzer reagents

UNSPSC 41116010 Immunology analyzer reagents is a Commodity code covering diagnostic test kits and consumable supplies for automated laboratory analyzers used in sexually transmitted infection screening, drug-abuse testing, and public health disease surveillance. State and local governments procure these reagents through the original equipment manufacturer's reagent rental or supply agreements, with prices typically structured as annual volume contracts tied to specific analyzer platforms (Hologic Panther NAAT, Abbott ARCHITECT, drugs-of-abuse analyzers) and including calibrators, controls, collection kits, and consumables. Issuing bodies include state health departments (Illinois Department of Public Health), county community supervision and criminal justice agencies (Collin County), county health services (Collin County Health Care Services), county criminal detention systems (Gwinnett County), and municipal public health programs (City of Austin). The Illinois Department of Public Health appears as a repeat buyer for HIV/Syphilis reagents under Abbott contracts, while Texas counties solicit regularly for drug-testing and STI-testing supplies and services.

Recent activity concentrates in Illinois and Texas. The Illinois Department of Public Health issued a change order in September 2026 (due October 13, 2026) increasing annual NG/CT testing from 15,000 to 25,000 tests and collection kits from 15,000 to 30,000 units under the Hologic Panther NAAT reagent rental agreement, raising contract cost by $375,000 to a revised total of $900,000 over five years. Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department posted an RFP in September 2026 (due July 23, 2026) for offender specimen collection and drug testing services with immunoassay screening and LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation, estimated at $600,000 annually for approximately 25,031 tests over a two-year term with three optional one-year renewals. Gwinnett County, Georgia requested proposals in September 2026 (due October 14, 2026) for drug testing supplies compatible with an existing drugs-of-abuse analyzer on an annual contract basis, though specifications and volume are not detailed in the posting. The City of Austin issued competing IFBs in June and August 2026 for Abbott Determine HIV 1/2 rapid test kits and controls (estimated 375 test kits and 79 control kits annually). The Illinois Department of Public Health also executed emergency sole-source procurements with Abbott Laboratories in May 2026 totaling $38,079.50 for HIV and Syphilis reagent kits, calibrators, controls, and consumables required for Abbott ARCHITECT i1000SR analyzers to maintain CLIA certification and critical public health operations.
