UNSPSC 41116171: Immunohematology reagent or solution

Immunohematology reagent or solution for ABO/Rh, antibody screening/identification and antigen typing

UNSPSC 41116171 Immunohematology reagent or solution is a Commodity code covering blood typing, HIV, hepatitis, and syphilis testing reagents and related screening supplies that state and local health departments, criminal justice agencies, and public health institutions procure to support diagnostic testing operations. The work involves both reagent supply contracts and comprehensive testing services that include specimen collection, screening assays, confirmation testing, and related laboratory support. Issuing bodies span state health departments, county corrections and community supervision agencies, municipal public health programs, and university health centers. The Illinois Department of Public Health has appeared multiple times in recent procurement activity, including emergency purchases of Abbott HIV and Syphilis reagents and a larger competitive invitation for fourth-generation hepatitis and HIV screening assays with instrumentation. Texas and county-level criminal justice and health agencies also drive regular solicitation activity under this code.

Recent geographic concentration appears in Illinois, Texas, and Florida. The Illinois Department of Public Health issued an emergency sole-source award to Abbott Laboratories Inc. for HIV and Syphilis reagents (approximately $38,079.50, May 2026) and a competitive Invitation for Bid for hepatitis, HIV, and syphilis screening assays with automated instrumentation covering five years plus up to five renewal years, with annual test volumes of approximately 13,200 HIV tests, 11,000 syphilis tests, 3,300 hepatitis B tests, and 3,000 hepatitis C tests (due March 16, 2026).
