UNSPSC 41141823: Oxalate

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

UNSPSC 41141823 Oxalate is a Commodity code that does not map cleanly to the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it. The recent solicitations include drug testing supplies for abuse analyzers (Gwinnett County, Georgia), laboratory reagents and culture media for food and water testing (Texas HHSC/DSHS and Mississippi Department of Health), respiratory pathogen detection kits for wastewater surveillance (Texas HHSC/DSHS), solid-phase extraction disks for drinking water analysis (Texas HHSC/DSHS), gas chromatography standards and instrument parts (Texas HHSC/DSHS), whole genome sequencing kits from Clear Labs and Illumina (Mississippi Department of Health), and extraction columns for laboratory use (City of Philadelphia). These are laboratory consumables, reagents, kits, and related supplies used in clinical diagnostics, environmental microbiology, and public health testing — none of which align substantively with oxalate chemistry or oxalate-specific procurement. The code appears to have been misapplied by one or more issuing bodies, and no opportunities specifically targeting oxalate procurement are present in the recent activity.

State and local buyers posting under this code span state health departments (Texas HHSC/DSHS and Mississippi Department of Health), county health agencies (Gwinnett County), universities (University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio), and municipalities (City of Philadelphia). Texas and Mississippi dominate recent activity, with multiple competitive and sole-source procurements from state public health laboratories. Geographic concentration reflects ongoing investment in environmental microbiology, wastewater surveillance, and foodborne illness detection at state public health agencies. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017881 (August 2026, due August 26) for laboratory supplies compatible with Biomerieux instruments for food, water, and dairy testing; the Mississippi Department of Health sole-source notice (April 2026, objection deadline May 14) for Illumina kits and reagents totaling $393,667.98 for whole genome sequencing operations; and the City of Philadelphia micro purchase B2627232 (May 2026, due May 30) for Clean Thru Extraction Columns under $43,000. No opportunities specifically addressing oxalate procurement have been identified; the code shows limited or misaligned recent activity relative to its nominal scope.
