UNSPSC 41181803: Yeast allergenic extracts

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

UNSPSC 41181803 Yeast allergenic extracts (Commodity) shows substantial mismatch between the code's nominal scope and recent state and local solicitations. The code nominally describes allergen products for clinical or laboratory use, yet all recent opportunities in the source involve diagnostic testing supplies — HIV test kits, syphilis reagents, sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing platforms, drug testing supplies, and general laboratory services — none of which are yeast allergenic extracts. The issuing bodies span state health departments (Illinois Department of Public Health), county criminal justice and health agencies (Collin County, Texas), municipal public health programs (City of Austin), and state corrections agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). Collin County appears twice in the recent window, first as the sponsor of an RFP for offender specimen collection and drug testing services and second for general laboratory services procurement. The geographic concentration includes Texas (Austin, Collin County), Illinois (IDPH), and Georgia (Gwinnett County), with no single state dominating activity.

The recent opportunities reveal heavy procurement of infectious disease and drug-screening consumables rather than allergenic products. Representative recent solicitations include the Illinois Department of Public Health's emergency procurement of Abbott HIV and Syphilis reagents (May 2026, $38,079.50 sole-source contract), the City of Austin's IFB for rapid HIV test kits (June 2026, 375 test kits and 79 control kits annually, rebid in August 2026), Collin County's RFP for offender specimen collection and drug testing services (September 2026, approximately 25,031 annual tests at $600,000 estimated value, responses due July 23, 2026), and Collin County's IFB for general laboratory services (October 2, 2025 deadline, approximately $70,000 annual value). The code does not appear to reflect actual procurement activity under its current classification and warrants verification against the state and local issuing bodies' internal taxonomies before pursuit.
