UNSPSC 41141530: Sucrose standards

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

UNSPSC 41141530 Sucrose standards is a Commodity code that classifies laboratory reference materials and reagent kits used in forensic drug analysis, toxicology screening, and chemical identification by state and local public health and law enforcement agencies. The recent state and local solicitations show that this code is being applied to procurements of certified reference materials, immunoassay reagent kits, and DNA screening kits rather than sucrose standards per se—a meaningful mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what is actually being bought. The issuing bodies include state forensic laboratories (Texas Department of Public Safety Crime Lab, Pinellas County Forensic Laboratory working with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement), state health agencies (Texas Department of State Health Services, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. These are primarily state-level agencies and county public health and law enforcement operations with specialized laboratory functions, not school districts, municipalities, or transit authorities.

The geographic concentration of recent activity is in Texas and Florida, with state health and forensic agencies as the repeat buyers. Representative opportunities include the Texas Department of Public Safety's IFB 405-26R0008445A (due July 23, 2026) for Direct ELISA testing kits and reagents for substance analysis across 12 line items; Pinellas County's Invitation to Quote 26-0305-ITQ (due April 23, 2026) for 131 line items of certified drug reference standards accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and funded through the Paul Coverdell Forensic Sciences Improvement Act Program; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's Invitation for Bids HHS0016902v2 (due January 29, 2026) for QIAxcel and QIAamp DNA screening kits for state laboratory operations. Pinellas County offers a five percent price preference to certified small business enterprises submitting within the first five business days. The code shows modest recent activity limited to forensic and state laboratory procurement, with no indication of broader state or local government adoption across other sectors or jurisdictions.
