UNSPSC 41131612 Blood bank centrifuge for in vitro diagnostic use is a Commodity code that captures specialized medical equipment used in emergency medical services and transfusion operations. State and local governments procuring under this code are sourcing blood transfusion equipment and associated consumables—specifically blood warmers, transport bags, and related apparatus—for emergency medical services delivery and hospital transfusion programs. The issuing bodies soliciting under the code include state emergency medical services boards and county public safety departments operating emergency medical transport and fire rescue services.

The most recent activity centers on California and Florida. The State of California Emergency Medical Services Board posted an RFQ (RFBIS27200126) due September 9, 2026, seeking blood transfusion equipment including the Qinflow Warrior Blood Warmer system and T-SPEC Meret Bag G2 Pro X transport bags for EMSB facilities statewide, with Certified Business Enterprise certification required for participation and best-value contract award.
