UNSPSC 41141518: Mixed anion standards

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

UNSPSC 41141518 Mixed anion standards is a Commodity code that encompasses certified reference materials, laboratory standards, and quality control consumables used in analytical testing — including ion chromatography standards, drug reference materials, radon measurement devices, immunoassay reagents, and related laboratory supplies deployed in environmental, forensic, food safety, and public health testing operations. State and local governments procure these standards and consumables to validate analytical instruments, analyze evidentiary or environmental samples, and maintain compliance with regulatory frameworks such as the Safe Drinking Water Act and ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation standards. Issuing bodies include state health and environmental departments, state forensic laboratories, county health agencies, and county offices serving public health functions. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of Public Safety appear as repeat buyers, soliciting these materials for drinking water analysis, food and dairy testing, and forensic drug analysis.
