UNSPSC 51122901: Magnesium gluconate

This classification denotes a nutritional supplement with the molecular formula 2C6H11O7.Mg.2H2O, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier T42NAD2KHC, chemically known as gluconic acid, magnesium salt (2:1), d- but more generally known as magnesium gluconate, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 19261. European Medicines Agency schedules Magnesium gluconate in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB14425MIG.

World Health Organization schedules magnesium gluconate in its Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) Classification. As of Q4 2014, MAGNESIUM GLUCONATE remains US FDA's Preferred Term for this commodity. Magnesium gluconate bears US NLM identifiers UMLS ID C0126777 and NCI Concept Code C76081. SMILES: C(C(C(C(C(C(=O)[O-])O)O)O)O)O.C(C(C(C(C(C(=O)[O-])O)O)O)O)O.[Mg+2].

UNSPSC 51122901 Magnesium gluconate is a Commodity code capturing individual pharmaceutical agents procured by state and local health and emergency services agencies. The recent solicitation activity under this code, however, shows minimal direct correlation to magnesium gluconate itself; state and local governments are instead using the code to tag broader emergency medical supply contracts that include multiple advanced life support medications such as labetalol, epinephrine, adenosine, and diltiazem. The actual work being bought reflects municipal fire rescue and emergency medical services' need for critical injectable medications used in acute care protocols, with vendors required to maintain strict expiration and quality standards, arrange timely replacement of expired stock, and deliver within narrow windows.

The City of Tampa's Purchasing Department posted a sealed-bid solicitation (26P00188) in April 2026 for Advanced Life Support Medications to supply Tampa Fire Rescue in Hillsborough County, with an estimated contract value of $40,000 and a response deadline of April 8, 2026. The opportunity included a Small Local Business Enterprise sheltered-market designation with a 5 percent bid discount (not to exceed $10,000), required OSHA-compliant Safety Data Sheets for all medications, and a one-year initial term with two optional one-year renewals plus three unilateral 30-day extensions at the City's discretion. The geographic scope of recent activity under this code is limited; only the Tampa solicitation is evident in the source material, suggesting that either magnesium gluconate procurement remains sporadic across state and local jurisdictions or that agencies tag such opportunities under broader pharmaceutical or medical supply codes rather than this specific commodity designation.
