UNSPSC 41116027: Nucleic acid extraction isolation and purification analyzer reagent and kit

Reagent and kit utilized for nucleic acid extraction, isolation and purification on automated systems

UNSPSC 41116027 Nucleic acid extraction isolation and purification analyzer reagent and kit, a Commodity code, describes reagents and kits used by state and local health departments and research institutions to extract, isolate, and purify nucleic acids for pathogen detection, wastewater surveillance, and diagnostic testing. Recent solicitations under this code show procurement of next-generation sequencing consumables, solid-phase extraction columns and disks, culture media, whole genome sequencing reagent bundles, and specialized laboratory diagnostic materials used in molecular testing for respiratory pathogens, foodborne illness detection, SARS-CoV-2 variant monitoring, and antimicrobial resistance profiling. The purchasing bodies include state health departments (Texas DSHS, Mississippi State Department of Health), state purchasing agencies (Texas HHSC, State of California), municipal environmental services (City of Philadelphia), and academic health centers (University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio). Texas HHSC appears as a repeat buyer across multiple solicitations for wastewater surveillance, drinking water testing, and clinical diagnostics.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, California, and Mississippi. Representative opportunities include the Texas HHSC Invitation for Bids HHS0017272, posted June 25, 2026, for respiratory pathogen detection kits and Illumina sequencing consumables with a bid deadline of May 19, 2026 (noted as due); the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017287, posted May 26, 2026, for Atlantic ReadyDisk HC-C18 solid-phase extraction disks; and the Mississippi State Department of Health sole-source procurements posted April 28, 2026, for Clear Labs and Illumina whole genome sequencing reagents totaling $226,072 and $393,667.98 respectively, with an objection deadline of May 14, 2026. The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio issued RFP 745-26-P19, posted May 7, 2026, for a comprehensive biotech research and clinical diagnostics catalog with proposals due June 4, 2026, evaluated on cost, reputation, quality, and value-added services. The City of Philadelphia micro-purchase (solicitation B2627232) sought Clean Thru Extraction Columns with a quote deadline of May 30, 2026, capped at $43,000. State of California solicitations for MyCodeDR Reagents and Cerilliant certified spiking solutions (posted April 14 and April 2, 2026 respectively) included Certified Business Enterprise set-aside considerations. Bid deadlines and contract values varied across solicitations, with historical spending guidance for Texas procurements ranging from $25,050 to $90,000, though HHSC explicitly disclaims volume guarantees and reserves discretion over price adjustments tied to Consumer Price Index movements or federal minimum wage changes.
