UNSPSC 41141501: Acetate standards

In this classification, this entry connotes a standardized formulation of Acetate used to conduct Anion tests.

UNSPSC 41141501 Acetate standards is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity names forensic and laboratory testing reagents, drug reference standards, and diagnostic test kits used by public safety and health agencies for toxicology, seized-drug analysis, and disease screening. The scope diverges from the abstract code name: recent opportunities show state departments of public safety, health, and criminal justice procuring Direct ELISA testing kits for substance screening (cannabinoids, opiates, benzodiazepines, and other controlled substances), certified reference materials for forensic drug analysis, West Nile Virus and dengue test kits for mosquito surveillance, and DNA screening kits for laboratory validation and evidentiary sample analysis. Issuing bodies include state departments (Texas Department of Public Safety, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation, Florida Department of Law Enforcement), county governments (Pinellas County, Florida), and forensic laboratories operated or co-procured by state agencies serving multiple jurisdictions.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida. The Texas Department of Public Safety issued IFB 405-26R0008445A on July 9, 2026, for Direct ELISA testing kits with electronic bids due July 23, 2026, under a sole-source authority; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission conducted competitive IFB HHS0016902v2 for QIAxcel and QIAamp DNA screening kits with a January 29, 2026, deadline and FY 2025 historical value between $25,050 and $30,000. Pinellas County, Florida, procured drug standards through Invitation to Quote #26-0305-ITQ on April 23, 2026, funded by the Paul Coverdell Forensic Sciences Improvement Act Program at $49,034 for equipment and supplies. The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation established a joint-purchase master contract for mosquito testing equipment (RAMP System test kits) through sole-source award to ADAPCO, LLC, with notice of intent posted May 4, 2026. Pinellas County's ITQ offered SBE preference with five-day priority window and five-percent price incentive thereafter. None of the recent opportunities identify incumbent vendors or guaranteed volumes.
