UNSPSC 41141817: Lactate

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

UNSPSC 41141817 Lactate, a Commodity code, does not align with the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged with this code cover laboratory reagents, consumables, and supplies for food and water safety testing, environmental microbiology, whole genome sequencing, and drug testing — none of which centers on lactate products or lactate-based testing. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in how opportunities are tagged or that this code sees minimal relevant procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope.

State and local laboratories, particularly public health departments and water-safety agencies, are sourcing culture media, DNA preparation kits, SPE extraction disks, gas chromatography standards, respiratory pathogen detection kits, and specialty testing reagents from suppliers like Idexx Laboratories, Illumina, Clear Labs, and Biomerieux. Issuing bodies include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (DSHS), the Mississippi State Department of Health, Gwinnett County, Georgia, the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, and the City of Philadelphia. The recent competitive and sole-source procurements cover initial contract terms running through August 2026 or August 2027, with response dates in May, June, August, and September 2026. Geographic activity centers on Texas and Mississippi, with isolated activity in Georgia and Pennsylvania. No recent opportunities explicitly soliciting lactate products appear in the available records.
