UNSPSC 41141810: Fructose

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

UNSPSC 41141810 Fructose is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity captures laboratory reagents, consumables, and diagnostic supplies rather than the food ingredient its abstract name suggests. State and local health departments, university research centers, and specialized diagnostic laboratories dominate the issuing-body mix, with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) appearing as a repeat buyer across multiple solicitations for wastewater surveillance kits, culture media, water-quality testing consumables, and gas chromatography standards. The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSA) is also a significant repeat buyer seeking broad laboratory supply catalogs. Work being solicited ranges from next-generation sequencing (NGS) consumables for pathogen detection and whole genome sequencing (WGS) reagents to solid-phase extraction disks for EPA drinking-water compliance testing and specialized analytical chemistry standards. The City of Philadelphia's micro-purchase for extraction columns and state health departments' sole-source procurements for sequencing reagent bundles illustrate the code's actual scope — laboratory infrastructure supplies used in public health surveillance, clinical diagnostics, and environmental testing rather than food production inputs.

Texas dominates recent activity, with HHSC posting five separate IFBs since February 2026 for respiratory pathogen detection kits (HHS0017272, due May 19, 2026), culture media test products (HHS0017132, due June 2, 2026), solid-phase extraction disks (HHS0017287, due May 13, 2026, and HHS0016987, due February 12, 2026), and gas chromatography consumables (HHS0017271, due May 12, 2026). Mississippi State Department of Health issued sole-source procurements for Clear Labs and Illumina WGS reagent bundles (both due May 14, 2026) supporting foodborne-illness outbreak detection and SARS-CoV-2 variant surveillance. California posted two brand-name-only RFBs for specialized mycobacterial reagents (RFBIS26200845, due April 29, 2026) and Cerilliant certified spiking solutions (RFBIS26200758, due April 13, 2026). UTHSA's RFP 745-26-P19 (due June 4, 2026) seeks a comprehensive biotech research and clinical diagnostics catalog with punchout e-procurement integration covering approximately 8,768 line items. The code sees minimal activity outside these jurisdictions in the recent record.
