UNSPSC 41181715: Gum allergenic extracts

In this classification, this entry connotes an extract made of Gum used in an Immunological Allergenic test.

UNSPSC 41181715 Gum allergenic extracts is a Commodity code that state and local governments tag for HIV and Syphilis diagnostic testing kits and reagents, though recent solicitations show minimal alignment with the code's nominal scope. The work actually being solicited under this code includes HIV rapid test kits, HIV/Syphilis screening assays with automated instrumentation, Hepatitis B and C testing reagents, confirmatory testing via LC/MS/MS or GC/MS methodologies, and related calibrator and control kits. State health departments (Illinois Department of Public Health), county community supervision agencies (Collin County, Texas), and municipal public health programs (Austin) are the primary issuing bodies. The code shows little relevant recent activity; the opportunities in the block are forensic laboratory analysis for criminal justice, offender drug testing, pool maintenance, university clinical diagnostics, and equipment rental—none of which constitute allergenic extract procurement or align with the code's stated commodity.

Illinois Department of Public Health has posted the most recent qualifying opportunities: an IFB (26482DPHOFCDIB50489) issued February 13, 2026, due March 16, 2026, seeking a five-year contract for HIV, Syphilis, and Hepatitis B/C screening assays and fully automated instrumentation with estimated annual test volumes of 13,200 HIV tests and 11,000 Syphilis tests, and an emergency procurement (26482DPHOFCDIB52638) issued May 21, 2026, due August 18, 2026, for Abbott reagents and calibrators supporting IDPH Carbondale Laboratory operations, awarded to Abbott Laboratories Inc. at $38,079.50. City of Austin issued an IFB (IFB9100AAM1023) on June 15, 2026, due July 17, 2026, for Abbott Determine HIV 1/2 rapid test kits (375 units annually) and controls (79 units) for Austin Public Health. Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department issued an RFP (2026-327) on July 9, 2026, due July 23, 2026, for offender specimen collection and drug testing services with approximately 25,031 annual tests and an estimated contract value of $600,000; while primarily a drug-testing solicitation, it includes immunoassay screening and confirmation methodologies. Activity is concentrated in Texas and Illinois with no standout repeat buyers across jurisdictions beyond Abbott as the incumbent reagent supplier in Illinois emergency procurements.
