UNSPSC 41121523: Sterile diluents for PPR vaccine

A solution used to reconstitute and dilute peste des petits ruminants (PPR) vaccines.

UNSPSC 41121523 Sterile diluents for PPR vaccine is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity covers vaccines and related biologics procured by health departments and public health agencies. The code's nominal scope references diluents for PPR (plague, relapsing fever, and paratyphoid) vaccine, but the single recent opportunity posted under it involves Yellow Fever Vaccine, indicating either a mis-classification in the state and local system or a broad interpretation of the code to cover multiple vaccine products. State and local health departments are the primary issuing bodies soliciting under this code.

The Mississippi State Department of Health posted a sole source procurement notice on July 13, 2026 (Solicitation Number 3150006922, 1301-27-R-RFIN-00001) for Yellow Fever Vaccine from Sanofi Pasteur, Inc., with objections due August 3, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. CST. The notice invites any vendor to challenge the sole source designation by submitting written objections with evidence that alternative suppliers can provide the vaccine; if substantiated objections are received, the department will conduct a competitive bid process. The notice does not disclose quantity, contract term, estimated value, or pricing. Geographic activity is limited to Mississippi based on available records, though the sparse opportunity pool makes broader geographic characterization difficult. The code shows minimal recent state and local activity.
