UNSPSC 41151631: Lab 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 41151631 Lab screening test kit (Commodity) covers diagnostic reagent kits and certified reference materials that state and local forensic laboratories and public health agencies use for drug analysis, disease surveillance, and toxicology testing. State and local governments procure these kits for direct ELISA testing of controlled substances, mosquito-borne illness detection, and forensic drug-standard validation in crime laboratories and health departments. The issuing bodies span state law-enforcement crime labs, state health departments, county forensic laboratories, and state health and human services agencies. Recent activity shows repeat procurement from Texas Department of Public Safety, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Pinellas County (Florida) Forensic Laboratory, and Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation.
