UNSPSC 41141508: Chloride standards

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

UNSPSC 41141508 Chloride standards (Commodity) covers laboratory reference materials and testing supplies procured by state and local health, environmental, and law enforcement agencies for analytical chemistry applications — principally drinking water compliance testing, food and dairy analysis, forensic toxicology, and environmental monitoring. State and local governments buying under this code seek certified reference standards, quality control reagents, test kits, and consumable supplies that meet accreditation requirements such as ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034. The issuing bodies span state health departments, county environmental offices, state law enforcement agencies, and special-purpose districts; Texas Health and Human Services Commission and its subordinate Department of State Health Services appear as repeat buyers across multiple recent solicitations, while county forensic laboratories and environmental health programs also source under the code. Work ranges from consumables for organic chemistry analysis of drinking water samples to certified drug standards for forensic toxicology, immunoassay reagents for substance screening, and radon measurement kits for environmental health programs.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, and New York. Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0018026 on September 24, 2026, soliciting standards, consumables, and instrument parts (GC columns, septa, UHPLC columns, protective gloves, detector components, ion source assemblies) used by the Organic Chemistry Group for Safe Drinking Water Act compliance, with responses due October 9, 2026; the same agency earlier posted IFB HHS0017881 on August 19, 2026, for lab supplies and quality control materials compatible with Biomerieux instruments for food, water, dairy, and shellfish testing, due August 26, 2026. Texas Department of Public Safety issued IFB 405-26R0008445A on July 9, 2026, for Direct ELISA immunoassay reagent kits for cannabinoids, opiates, and other controlled substances, due July 23, 2026. Pinellas County, Florida, in partnership with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, issued Invitation to Quote #26-0305-ITQ on April 23, 2026, for 131 line items of certified drug standards for forensic analysis with ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, funded through federal grants totaling $72,126.85 with approximately $49,034.00 designated for equipment and supplies; Pinellas County Certified Small Business Enterprises receive price preference on that solicitation. Rockland County, New York, posted RFP RFBRC2026044 on July 14, 2026, for radon testing devices and laboratory analysis services, due August 20, 2026.
