UNSPSC 41171612: Oxidase screening test for gonorrhea

In this classification, a Oxidase screening test for gonorrhea connotes an in vitro device that consists of the articles intended to identify by chemical reaction, cytochrome oxidase, an oxidizing enzyme that is associated with certain bacteria including Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Because it is unlikely that cytochrome oxidase-positive organisms other than Neisseria gonorrhoeae are present in the urethral discharge of males, the identification of cytochrome oxidase with this device indicates presumptive infection of the patient with the causative agent of gonorrhea.

US FDA regulates Oxidase screening test for gonorrhea under 21 CFR 866.2420 and under FDA product code LGA.

UNSPSC 41171612 Oxidase screening test for gonorrhea is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Pinellas County School District's ITB #26CD039 for Indoor Air Quality Services, posted October 9, 2026, with bids due November 6, 2026—covers asbestos and mold testing, laboratory analysis, and environmental assessment services. This scope bears no relationship to the code's nominal focus on infectious-disease diagnostic testing. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the district's system or an inappropriate code assignment that does not reflect the actual work being procured.

The Indoor Air Quality Services opportunity requires the contractor to hold Florida licenses and certifications including Asbestos License, Licensed Mold Assessor, and AIHA Environmental Laboratory Certification; maintain an in-house laboratory within 25 miles of the service center; employ microbiologists and environmental analysts; and perform all work with the contractor's own employees. The estimated contract value is approximately $100,000, with a term commencing December 16, 2026, and concluding December 15, 2027, plus a mutual renewal option for two additional years. Pre-bid attendance was mandatory on October 28, 2026. Without additional opportunities under this code in the source material, no pattern of state or local procurement activity or geographic spread can be identified.
