UNSPSC 42152014: Dental radioactive tracers

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that uses radioactive isotopes to measure dental caries. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901839.

UNSPSC 42152014 Dental radioactive tracers is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually procuring under this classification. Recent solicitations tagged to this code involve dental imaging equipment, X-ray systems maintenance, and panoramic radiography units—diagnostic devices and services entirely unrelated to radioactive tracers. The code shows a fundamental mismatch between its nominal scope and recent procurement activity, with no genuine dental radioactive tracer solicitations appearing in the available record.

The recent opportunities instead span dental school equipment purchases, county corrections facilities seeking X-ray system warranties, and state health agencies procuring diagnostic imaging units. Valencia College's Dental Hygiene Department solicited 4 iTero Lumina Scanners via sole-source procurement in November 2025; Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFBs for VATECH PAX-I panoramic X-ray systems for Rusk State Hospital in June 2026; and Broward County Aviation Department posted an RFI in June 2026 regarding maintenance services for proprietary Rapiscan X-ray inspection systems. California issued competitive bids for ProMax S2 Panoramic equipment and a separate RFB for TRIOS 5 Wireless through its Department of Homeland Security. This code shows little relevant recent activity for firms pursuing actual dental radioactive tracer procurement—the code appears to have been misapplied to imaging equipment solicitations, making it unsuitable for business development targeting under its stated commodity definition.
