UNSPSC 41181826: Dock allergenic extracts

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

UNSPSC 41181826 Dock allergenic extracts (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's title suggests allergenic extract products for immunotherapy use, yet the most-recent solicitations tagged under this code overwhelmingly involve diagnostic laboratory testing services — primarily HIV and Syphilis reagents, screening assays, and related clinical laboratory supplies and operations. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span health departments (Illinois Department of Public Health, City of Austin Public Health), county criminal justice and community supervision agencies (Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and higher education institutions (University of Houston). The Collin County RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services (due July 23, 2026, approximately 25,031 annual tests under contract value $600,000) and the Illinois Department of Public Health's February 2026 IFB for Hepatitis/HIV/Syphilis screening assays and instrumentation (five-year term with renewal options, annual volumes of approximately 3,300 Hepatitis B, 3,000 Hepatitis C, 13,200 HIV, and 11,000 Syphilis tests) represent the largest recent procurement activities. The City of Austin's IFB 9100AAM1023 for rapid HIV test kits (posted June 15, 2026, due July 17, 2026) and the Illinois Department of Public Health's emergency procurements for Abbott HIV/Syphilis reagents (February and May 2026, sole-source awards to Abbott Laboratories Inc. totaling $38,079.50) further exemplify the code's de facto use for clinical diagnostics rather than allergenic extracts.

Activity concentrates in Texas and Illinois. Texas opportunities include Collin County (RFP 2026-327, offender testing), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (RFP 696-IG-26-P034 for forensic analysis laboratory testing services, due May 13, 2026), and the University of Houston (RFP-730-UofH-3109 for clinical diagnostic laboratory services, due March 24, 2026). Illinois opportunities are dominated by the Illinois Department of Public Health Division of Laboratories (February 2026 Hepatitis/HIV/Syphilis screening IFB 26482DPHOFCDIB50489, two emergency Abbott procurements in February and May 2026). The City of Austin represents activity in a third state. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope — dock allergenic extracts — and the diagnostic laboratory testing services actually being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement databases or that the source data conflates unrelated commodity and service lines. Firms evaluating this code should verify the actual scope of opportunities through original RFPs rather than relying on the code designation alone.
