UNSPSC 41131607: Blood grouping view box

In this classification, a blood grouping view box is a device with a glass or plastic viewing surface, which may be illuminated and heated, that is used to view cell reactions in antigen-antibody testing. US FDA regulates Blood grouping view box under 21 CFR 864.9185 and under FDA product code KSY.

UNSPSC 41131607 Blood grouping view box is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local activity tagged under it does not match the code's nominal scope. The two most recent opportunities—one from the California Emergency Medical Services Board for blood transfusion equipment (Qinflow Warrior Blood Warmer systems and associated consumable bags) and one from Hillsborough County for janitorial and operational supplies for fire rescue stations—fall outside the equipment and diagnostic instrumentation that a blood grouping view box represents. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity definition.

The California procurement (RFBIS27200126, due September 9, 2026) was issued as a competitive sealed bid under Measure B emergency medical services funding and required Certified Business Enterprise certification as a mandatory prerequisite. The Hillsborough County opportunity (ITB2600319, due July 24, 2026) was an Invitation to Bid for consumable supplies across 47 fire stations with an estimated annual value of $765,679.84, delivery coordinated to the Public Safety Operations Complex in Tampa, Florida. Neither solicitation reflects the diagnostic blood grouping equipment the code nominally encompasses, suggesting either a tagging error in the source data or a divergence between the code's taxonomy definition and current state and local procurement practice under this code number.
