UNSPSC 51141547: Aminobutyric acid

This classification denotes a neurotransmitter, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 2ACZ6IPC6I. European Medicines Agency schedules Gamma-aminobutyric acid in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB13946MIG. Gamma-aminobutyric acid generally arises in the molecular formula C4H9NO2. The term 'gamma-aminobutyric acid' is an International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients designation. SMILES: OC(=O)CCCN.

UNSPSC 51141547 Aminobutyric acid is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this code is Seminole County, Florida's IFB 60459723LAS, which solicits naloxone and safe drug deactivation systems—pharmaceuticals and harm-reduction equipment wholly unrelated to aminobutyric acid, a chemical compound used in industrial and laboratory applications. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the county's procurement system or that the code is not in active use for its intended commodity class among state and local buyers.

The Seminole County opportunity, posted June 30, 2026 with a response deadline of July 26, 2023, calls for 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually, delivered quarterly to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford. The county is using competitive bidding (IFB) and has flagged FEMA as a potential funding source, triggering federal compliance overlays such as the Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act. Vendors must provide unit pricing, carry workers' compensation and liability insurance, pass E-Verify, and accept a three-month probationary termination clause. Beyond this single solicitation, the source provides no additional state or local opportunities, geographic spread, or repeat issuing bodies under this code. The disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the naloxone procurement suggests that pursuit decisions should rest on direct market intelligence rather than UNSPSC-based code activity.
