UNSPSC 41181566: Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (cftr) gene mutation detection system

In this classification, a Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (cftr) gene mutation detection system is a device that consists of the reagents used to identify by immunochemical techniques Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (cftr) gene mutation detection. US FDA regulates Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (cftr) gene mutation detection system under 21 CFR 866.5900 and under FDA product code PFS.

UNSPSC 41181566 Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutation detection system is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its stated scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span unrelated equipment categories: optical surface profilometers for educational use, airfield photometric testing systems, drug-discovery software platforms, three-phase electric meter test boards, high-voltage capacitance measurement modules, sterilization equipment maintenance, atmospheric gas monitoring sensors, nanoindentation systems, oil analysis laboratory services, waste-to-energy spectrophotometers, and technical support contracts for water-quality analyzers. None of these solicitations involve cystic fibrosis diagnostics, genetic testing, or CFTR mutation detection. The mismatch indicates that the commodity code has been applied as a catch-all for specialized laboratory and testing equipment procurement by state and local agencies rather than for its intended clinical or diagnostic purpose.

State and local bodies issuing under this code include independent school districts (Valencia College, Jacksonville State University, Texas State University), municipal electric utilities (City of Ocala, Kissimmee Utility Authority), county authorities (Lee County Port Authority, Collier County, Marion County), state health agencies (Texas DSHS, Colorado State Patrol), and municipal water and wastewater systems (City of Tampa, City of Phoenix, City of Orlando). The geographic spread spans Florida, Texas, Colorado, Oregon, and Arizona, with no discernible concentration. Recent notice types include sole-source notices of intent, RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs posted between May and October 2026. The code appears to function as a miscellaneous classification for specialized instrumentation and testing services rather than as an active procurement category for CFTR diagnostics.
