UNSPSC 41141808: D-xylose

In this classification, this entry connotes a substrate made of D-xylose that is used in clinical chemistry testing.

UNSPSC 41141808 D-xylose, a Commodity code, does not reflect the work actually being solicited under this classification in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve laboratory supplies, reagents, and consumables for public health testing — including drug testing supplies, food and water testing reagents, sequencing kits, culture media, and solid-phase extraction disks — none of which are D-xylose or chemically related compounds. The mismatch suggests a tagging error in the source data rather than genuine procurement activity under the D-xylose commodity classification. State and local procurement offices appear not to be actively buying D-xylose through formal solicitations at this time.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities include state health departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission on behalf of the Department of State Health Services; Mississippi State Department of Health), a county public health jurisdiction (Gwinnett County, Georgia), a municipal government (City of Philadelphia), and a university research institution (University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio). Geographically, the bulk of recent activity clusters in Texas and Mississippi, with isolated instances in Georgia and Pennsylvania. Representative recent solicitations include Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017881 (Lab Supplies for food, water, dairy and shellfish testing, due August 26, 2026), Mississippi State Department of Health sole-source notices for Illumina WGS kits and Clear Labs reagents (objections due May 14, 2026), and Gwinnett County RFP BL144-26 (Purchase of Drug Testing Supplies, due October 14, 2026). None of these solicitations are for D-xylose or related chemical compounds.
