UNSPSC 41151630: Laboratory screening test kit

Screening test is done to detect potential health disorders or diseases in people who do not have any symptoms of disease. The goal is early detection and lifestyle changes or surveillance, to reduce the risk of disease, or to detect it early enough to treat it most effectively. Kit also contains primers and probes.

UNSPSC 41151630 Laboratory screening test kit (Commodity) describes consumables, reagents, and reference materials used by state and local health, environmental, and forensic laboratories to conduct diagnostic and analytical testing. State and local governments procure under this code testing kits for pathogen detection, drug analysis, environmental contaminant screening, and quality control—including VIDAS QC test kits, Direct ELISA kits for substance analysis, radon measurement devices, drug reference standards, West Nile Virus and Dengue test kits, and bacterial strain kits for food and water safety validation. Issuing bodies span health and human services departments, environmental quality agencies, forensic crime laboratories, county health offices, and specialized testing programs within state governments.

Recent activity centers on Texas health and forensic agencies, with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) and Department of State Health Services (DSHS) procuring lab supplies for drinking water analysis, food and dairy testing, and pathogen detection; the Texas Department of Public Safety soliciting immunoanalysis reagent kits for substance analysis; and Pinellas County, Florida, and Rockland County, New York, acquiring drug reference standards and radon testing devices respectively. The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation established a joint purchase master contract for mosquito testing equipment including West Nile Virus and Dengue test kits. Representative opportunities include HHSC IFB HHS0018026 for standards, consumables, and instrument parts (response due October 9, 2026; historical annual value $50,000–$75,000), HHSC IFB HHS0017881 for lab supplies for food, water, dairy, and shellfish testing (response due August 26, 2026; historical annual value $25,000–$50,000), Texas Department of Public Safety IFB 405-26R0008445A for immunalysis reagent kits (response due July 23, 2026), and Pinellas County ITQ 26-0305-ITQ for certified drug reference standards (response due April 23, 2026; federal funding $72,126.85, of which approximately $49,034.00 allocated to supplies).
