UNSPSC 41202102: Analyte specific reagents

In this classification Analyte specific reagents are antibodies, both polyclonal and monoclonal, specific receptor proteins, ligands, nucleic acid sequences, and similar reagents which, through specific binding or chemical reaction with substances in a specimen, are intended for use in a diagnostic application for identification and quantification of an individual chemical substance or ligand in biological specimens. US FDA regulates Analyte specific reagents under 21 CFR 864.4020 and under FDA product code MVU.

UNSPSC 41202102 Analyte specific reagents is a Commodity code encompassing diagnostic test kits and related chemical reagents that state and local health departments, criminal justice agencies, and public health programs procure to screen blood specimens for infectious diseases and controlled substances. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying HIV screening kits, hepatitis B and C assays, syphilis antibody tests, drug-testing reagents for urinalysis panels, and the calibrators and controls required to maintain lab certification and analyzer uptime. The issuing bodies include state public health laboratories (Illinois Department of Public Health Division of Laboratories), county criminal justice agencies (Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department), municipal health departments (City of Austin Public Health Program), university health centers (University of Houston Student Health Center), and state criminal justice departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). State health departments appear as repeat buyers — the Illinois Department of Public Health has posted multiple solicitations for HIV and Syphilis reagents and Hepatitis/HIV/Syphilis combination assays in a six-month window.

Activity concentrates in Texas and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include Collin County's RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services (posted July 9, 2026, due July 23, 2026) seeking immunoassay screening with confirmation testing on approximately 25,031 tests annually under a two-year contract with optional renewals, estimated at $600,000; the City of Austin's IFB 9100AAM1023 for HIV test kits (posted June 15, 2026, due July 17, 2026) requesting Abbott Determine HIV 1/2 test kits in quantities of 375 units annually; the Illinois Department of Public Health's IFB for Hepatitis/HIV/Syphilis 4th generation assay screening and instrumentation (posted February 13, 2026, due March 16, 2026) specifying a fully automated combination technology with approximately 13,200 HIV tests and 11,000 Syphilis tests annually over a five-year contract term with optional five-year renewal; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's RFP 696-IG-26-P034 for forensic analysis and expert witness testimony (posted April 13, 2026, due May 13, 2026) covering urine and feces stain analysis with specialized accreditation requirements. The Illinois Department of Public Health has also executed sole-source emergency procurements directly with Abbott Laboratories for HIV and Syphilis reagents and Abbott ARCHITECT analyzer consumables totaling $38,079.50, reflecting the tight supply and proprietary-equipment dependencies that drive emergency contracting in this space.
