UNSPSC 42181530: Iontophoresis sweat induction systems

In this classification, this commodity indicates a system consisting of products, consumables and accessories that are used to execute an iontophoresis sweat induction procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Iontophoresis sweat induction systems under 21 CFR 890.5525 and under FDA product code EGJ. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901849.

UNSPSC 42181530 Iontophoresis sweat induction systems is a Commodity code that covers specialized diagnostic equipment used in sweat-induction testing, though recent state and local procurement activity under this specific code is minimal. The two NASPO ValuePoint RFPs posted in September and October 2026 nominally cite this code as part of broader medical-supplies master-agreement solicitations, but the detailed scope of those RFPs emphasizes general medical-supply distribution frameworks rather than iontophoresis equipment specifically. A third opportunity, Sourcewell RFP 061626 for law enforcement equipment, is unrelated to the code's nominal scope. State and local governments do procure medical diagnostic and testing equipment through cooperative purchasing vehicles, but the recent postings do not demonstrate sustained, code-specific demand for iontophoresis sweat induction systems.

The two NASPO ValuePoint RFPs—solicitation NVP1433 posted October 6, 2026 and solicitation 1433 posted September 25, 2026, both with proposals due November 9, 2026—are administered through multi-state cooperative purchasing consortiums (Idaho as sponsor for NVP1433, South Dakota as administering state for the broader RFP 1433) and open to state agencies and participating local government entities across multiple states. The RFPs establish master-agreement frameworks for competitive medical-supplies pricing and terms, with evaluation centered on vendor qualifications and pricing competitiveness. Funding draws from individual agency budgets. Set-asides or preferences may apply under state policy but are not specified in the available documentation. The narrow posting activity and general medical-supplies framing suggest this code sees limited direct solicitation; vendors pursuing iontophoresis or sweat-induction diagnostic equipment should monitor broader medical-equipment and diagnostic-services codes rather than rely on this specific commodity classification.
