UNSPSC 41122000: Laboratory or sampling syringes

UNSPSC 41122000 Laboratory or sampling syringes, Class code, encompasses syringes and related injection equipment used in state and local laboratory operations, though recent solicitations show the category capturing a broader range of consumables, reagents, and analytical supplies than the code name alone suggests. State and local governments are currently buying laboratory consumables, reagents, and equipment components—including chromatography columns, detector parts, extraction reagents, synthetic viral controls, and magnetic particles for microbe capture—rather than syringes specifically. Issuing bodies include state health departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment), state transportation agencies (Texas Department of Transportation), state environmental offices (Texas General Land Office), cities (City of Arlington, Texas), counties (Mississippi state government), and state environmental or public health laboratories. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment appears across multiple recent solicitations, indicating repeat procurement activity for specialized laboratory reagents and service agreements.

Activity is concentrated in Texas and Colorado, with single recent procurements in California, Mississippi, and South Dakota. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's solicitation HHS0018026 (posted September 24, 2026, due October 9, 2026) for standards, consumables, and instrument parts used in drinking water analysis, with historical annual spend between $50,000 and $75,000; the City of Arlington's annual requirements contract 270018 (posted August 19, 2026, due September 17, 2026) for laboratory supplies and chemicals supporting laboratory services and water treatment; the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment's sole-source procurements for Qiagen wastewater surveillance reagents and service (NPSS1FHCA20260002161, $3.14 million), Ceres Nanosciences reagents (NPSS1FHCA20260002081, $3.5 million), and Twist Bioscience synthetic viral controls (NPSS1FHCA20260002091, $2.3 million), all posted May 2026; and the Texas Department of Transportation's IFB 601320000070474 (posted May 6, 2026, due April 24, 2026) for laboratory equipment and accessories in Corpus Christi. Most competitive opportunities use IFB or RFQ structures; Colorado's high-value procurements are sole-source. Set-aside activity includes HUBZone or VetHUB subcontracting encouragement on competitive awards.
