UNSPSC 41181840: Hop allergenic extracts

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

UNSPSC 41181840 Hop allergenic extracts (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code is taxonomically designated for hop allergen products, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code cover diagnostic laboratory testing supplies—specifically HIV, syphilis, and sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing kits; drug testing supplies and services; and related laboratory reagents and analyzer consumables. State and local buyers under this code include state health departments (Illinois Department of Public Health), county health and corrections departments (Collin County, Texas), municipal public health programs (City of Austin), and county purchasing offices (Gwinnett County, Georgia). The work being solicited ranges from one-time-use rapid HIV test kits and STI screening supplies to comprehensive drug testing services with specimen collection, immunoassay screening, LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation, and electronic result reporting. Vendors must maintain lab certifications from SAMHSA, CLIA, CAP, or state health department approvals depending on the scope.

Recent activity spans Illinois, Texas, and Georgia. Representative opportunities include the Illinois Department of Public Health's emergency procurement for Abbott HIV and Syphilis reagents (due August 18, 2026, total contract value $38,079.50); Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department's RFP for offender specimen collection and drug testing services (due July 23, 2026, estimated annual value $600,000, covering approximately 25,031 annual tests across five-panel and six-panel screening with LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation); the City of Austin's IFB for rapid HIV test kits under Abbott Determine specifications (rebid version due September 3, 2026, estimated annual volume 375 test kits and 79 control kits); and Gwinnett County, Georgia's RFP for drug testing supplies compatible with a drugs of abuse analyzer (due October 14, 2026). The code assignment appears inconsistent with the actual commodity and service content being purchased, and represents a potential data-quality issue in how these opportunities are being tagged within state and local procurement systems.
