UNSPSC 41141900: Clinical chemistry test systems a-g

This class includes chemical test systems a-g employed in clinical or laboratory setting.

UNSPSC 41141900 Clinical chemistry test systems a-g is a Class code covering diagnostic reagents, reference standards, and analytical equipment that state and local forensic laboratories, public health agencies, and criminal justice departments procure for drug screening, toxicology, and forensic analysis. The work being solicited spans immunoassay reagent kits for substance testing (cannabinoids, opiates, PCP, amphetamines, and other controlled substances), certified reference drug standards for method validation and evidentiary analysis, and supporting laboratory equipment such as DNA screening kits and mass spectrometers. Issuing bodies include state forensic laboratories (Texas Department of Public Safety, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission/Department of State Health Services), county forensic laboratories (Pinellas County, Florida), and specialized state procurement offices (Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation). These are typically high-compliance, heavily regulated procurements with stringent accreditation and quality requirements tied to ISO/IEC 17025 standards, DEA licensing, and chain-of-custody protocols.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida. The Texas Department of Public Safety issued IFB 405-26R0008445A in July 2026 seeking immunoassay reagent kits across 12 line items of Direct ELISA testing kits (due July 23, 2026); Pinellas County, Florida issued ITQ 26-0305-ITQ in April 2026 for 131 line items of certified drug reference standards under federal Paul Coverdell Forensic Sciences Improvement funding with approximately $49,034 designated for equipment and supplies (due April 23, 2026, with SBE preference); and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0016902v2 in February 2026 for QIAxcel and QIAamp DNA screening kits with a historical contract value guideline of $25,050 to $30,000 (bid deadline January 29, 2026). The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation established a sole-source master contract for mosquito testing equipment (RAMP System test kits) in May 2026. Vendors should expect detailed technical specifications, quality certifications, firm pricing for 12-month contract periods, and state-specific compliance requirements including HUB subcontracting plans in Texas procurements.
