UNSPSC 41181611: RNase inhibitor

RNase Inhibitor inhibits the activity of RNases A,B and C by binding them in a noncompetitive mode at a 1:1 ratio. It does not inhibit eukaryotic RNases T1, T2, U1, U2, CL3 as well as prokaryotic RNases I and H. Highlights Performs under a wide range of reaction conditions Protects RNA from degradation at temperatures up to 55C Note DTT provided in the Storage Buffer ensures stability during long term storage, but is not necessary for inhibitor activity. Recommended concentration 1 U/ L of a reaction mixture. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

UNSPSC 41181611 RNase inhibitor is a Commodity code that does not support recent state and local procurement activity. The opportunities posted under this code span medical equipment service and maintenance, disposable safety apparel, surgical instruments, defibrillator devices, blood pressure cuffs, evacuation chairs, and educational equipment — none of which align with the molecular biology or laboratory reagent scope implied by the code name. San Mateo Medical Center (California) solicited laser equipment and surgical power instruments; University of Wisconsin-Madison requested disposable laboratory safety clothing; Santa Clara County sought ophthalmic instruments; and Cobb County School District requested AED equipment. A mismatch between the code assignment and actual procurement scope suggests the code label does not reflect what state and local buyers are actually purchasing under this taxonomy entry.

The geographic spread of tagged opportunities includes California (San Mateo County), Wisconsin, Georgia (Cobb County), and Florida, with additional vendor forums and networking events posted across Texas, Texas, and nationwide cooperative purchasing platforms. However, these opportunities represent medical device, equipment maintenance, and facility supply categories rather than RNase inhibitor reagents or related laboratory molecular biology inputs. The absence of genuine RNase inhibitor solicitations—consumable laboratory reagents for molecular or cellular research protocols—indicates the code either receives minimal state and local procurement volume or is being misapplied to unrelated medical and facility goods at present.
