UNSPSC 41142103: Bromate-bromide titrants

In this classification, this entry connotes a titrant of Bromate-bromide used as a reagent in clinical chemistry testing.

UNSPSC 41142103 Bromate-bromide titrants (Commodity) spans laboratory reagents and reference standards used in forensic drug analysis, toxicology testing, and environmental pathogen detection by state and local public health, law enforcement, and criminal justice agencies. The code's scope diverges significantly from its nominal name — recent solicitations show state and local procurement of Direct ELISA immunoassay reagent kits, certified drug reference standards, DNA screening kits, and mosquito-borne illness testing equipment rather than chemical titrants per se. The issuing bodies are primarily state health and criminal justice departments (Texas Department of Public Safety, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Florida Department of Law Enforcement as pass-through) and county forensic laboratories (Pinellas County, Florida), alongside state environmental and procurement entities (Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation). These agencies buy under the code to support forensic toxicology, seized-drug analysis, DNA screening in state laboratories, and disease surveillance operations.

Texas and Florida show the strongest recent activity under the code. The Texas Department of Public Safety posted an IFB (40526R0008445A) due July 23, 2026, for Direct ELISA reagent kits covering 12 substance classes (cannabinoids, opiates, PCP, amphetamines, cocaine, benzodiazepines, and others) with quantities of 3 to 30 units per line item and delivery to the Crime Lab Division in Austin. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a competitive IFB (HHS0016902v2) with a deadline of January 29, 2026, for QIAxcel and QIAamp DNA screening kits and markers, with historical annual spend of $25,050 to $30,000 and delivery to the state laboratory in Austin. Pinellas County, Florida, posted an Invitation to Quote (260305ITQ) due April 23, 2026, for 131 line items of certified drug reference standards (ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation required, 97% purity minimum) to support forensic and toxicology analysis at the county lab, with $49,034 in federal funding available through the Paul Coverdell Forensic Sciences Improvement Act Program and SBE preference applied. The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation established a joint purchase master contract through sole-source award to ADAPCO, LLC for RAMP mosquito testing equipment (West Nile Virus and Dengue test kits) on May 4, 2026, intended for multi-jurisdictional procurement across city, county, state, and federal agencies.
