In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that includes a syringe and associated components and accessories used in a blood gas analysis procedure in a medical setting.

UNSPSC 42142618 Blood gas analysis syringe kits is a Commodity code that covers pre-assembled syringes and related apparatus designed for blood gas specimen collection and analysis. State and local procurement activity under this code shows little direct solicitation of blood gas kits as a standalone product line; the recent opportunities block contains no dedicated procurements for this equipment. Instead, the code appears in the context of broader medical supply buys where blood gas analysis syringes are listed alongside other clinical consumables and equipment. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) included syringes among nine line items of specialized medical equipment and supplies for the Abilene State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0017603, due July 30, 2026), and the City of Tampa procured medical and first aid supplies for the Tampa Fire Department Rescue Division (ITB 26-P-00145, due March 13, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $700,000.00). These opportunities suggest state agencies, health departments, and municipal fire and rescue operations are the primary buyers, but blood gas analysis kits are typically procured as part of consolidated clinical supply contracts rather than as single-product RFQs or ITBs.

Geographic activity centers on Texas and Florida based on recent postings. The HHSC opportunity serves a state facility in Abilene, Texas, and the Tampa and Valencia College opportunities represent Florida procurement by municipal and higher-education entities. Beyond these jurisdictions, the source supports no other recent state or local solicitations specifically naming blood gas analysis syringes. The lack of standalone opportunities for this commodity suggests it is a low-frequency or low-dollar procurement item within most state and local budgets, bundled into larger medical consumables contracts where it competes against catalog pricing and volume discounts rather than driving dedicated procurement vehicles. Vendors pursuing this code should expect to bid as part of medical supply frameworks or group purchasing agreements rather than through narrow, product-specific procurements.
