UNSPSC 41121708: Anti coagulant test tubes

UNSPSC 41121708 Anti coagulant test tubes is a Commodity code that captures supplies and consumables for laboratory operations across diverse state and local testing and diagnostic functions. Recent solicitations show the code being deployed for forensic and crime-lab supplies, municipal water and wastewater testing programs, and public health laboratory operations. The scope of work is narrow—physical test tubes and related collection or containment vessels used in anticoagulation workflows—but the issuing bodies span cities, counties, and their subordinate agencies including police departments, utilities, and public health departments. Work under this code typically involves procurement of consumables in volume, often bundled with other laboratory supplies in multi-line-item RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs rather than standing alone.

Recent activity includes the City of Albuquerque Purchasing Division's RFB 2026-762-POL-DV (posted April 14, 2026, due May 13, 2026) for 124 line items of forensic laboratory supplies supporting the Albuquerque Police Department's Scientific Evidence Division, the City of Palm Bay's ITB 19-ITB-26 (posted April 13, 2026, due March 17, 2026) for laboratory testing services across water, wastewater, and groundwater programs with 188 line items and unit prices ranging from zero for field measurements to $425 for specialized analyses, and the County of Santa Clara's RFI for a Public Health Lab Information Management Solution Replacement (posted April 7, 2026, due April 22, 2026). Geographic spread appears concentrated in Florida and the Southwest, with secondary activity in California. Procurement vehicles emphasize sealed competitive bidding with unit-pricing evaluation and multi-year initial contract terms, state preferences where applicable, and a requirement for vendors to submit equal or substitute items functionally equivalent to specified brands.
