UNSPSC 42183055: Endothelial cell counters

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a device that is a screening tool used to verify that a patient's cornea has an adequate endothelial cell density in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42183055 Endothelial cell counters (Commodity) describes laboratory and analytical measurement equipment, though recent state and local opportunities show the code capturing precision test and diagnostic instrumentation more broadly than its nominal name suggests. State and local governments soliciting under this code are purchasing high-voltage test modules for utility system diagnostics, spectrophotometers for waste-to-energy facility water quality monitoring, and — through cooperative purchasing vehicles — law enforcement equipment frameworks. The issuing bodies include municipal utilities, city solid waste and environmental departments, and multi-county cooperative purchasing organizations serving public sector agencies across state lines.

Recent activity spans Florida and Washington. The Kissimmee Utility Authority issued IFB 26046JG in September 2026 for one OMICRON CP TD12 precision capacitance and power/dissipation factor measurement module (contract value under $250,000), with bids due September 22, 2026. The City of Tampa, Solid Waste & Environmental Program Management released RFQ 26-P-00372 in June 2026 for a Heck DR4900 spectrophotometer to replace existing equipment at the McKay Bay Waste to Energy facility, with quotes due June 12, 2026. Sourcewell, operating as a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, posted RFP 061626 in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment on behalf of participating entities across multiple states and Canada, with proposals due June 16, 2026. The code shows modest recent volume and mixed alignment between its stated scope and actual procurement activity.
