UNSPSC 41181873: Scale allergenic extracts

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

UNSPSC 41181873 Scale allergenic extracts is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity is being used to tag infectious-disease testing supplies, notably HIV test kits, syphilis reagents, and sexually transmitted infection screening materials. The issuing bodies are primarily state health departments and county health or correctional services agencies. The Illinois Department of Public Health has posted multiple emergency and routine procurements for HIV and syphilis reagents and controls compatible with Abbott ARCHITECT analyzer systems; the City of Austin has solicited rapid HIV test kits (Abbott Determine brand) for the public health program; Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department has sought offender drug and STI testing services; and Gwinnett County, Georgia has requested drug testing supplies for a drugs of abuse analyzer system. Scope includes both standalone test kits and reagent supplies for automated laboratory analyzers, control materials, calibrators, and associated consumables and maintenance services. The code encompasses manufacturer-specific proprietary products (Abbott systems predominate in the recent activity) and vendor provision of collection services, specimen handling, and certified laboratory analysis with electronic result reporting.

Recent activity clusters in Texas (Austin, Collin County, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice) and Illinois (the state health department), with additional Georgia procurement. The Illinois Department of Public Health issued an emergency change order in September 2026 to increase Hologic NG/CT testing volumes under Contract 68500013N, raising annual test quantity from 15,000 to 25,000 and collection kits from 15,000 to 30,000, with a cost increase of $375,000 ($75,000 annually) over five years. The City of Austin reposted an IFB for Abbott Determine HIV test kits in August 2026 (IFB 9100 AAM1023 REBID) after an earlier June 2026 solicitation, seeking approximately 375 test kits and 79 control kits annually with responses due September 3, 2026. Collin County's RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services, due July 23, 2026, encompasses approximately 25,031 annual tests at an estimated contract value of $600,000 over two years with three optional renewals.
