UNSPSC 51162724: Isalsteine

This classification denotes a mucolytic agent with the molecular formula C14H15NO6S, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier (SRS UNII) K0YPY57FUQ, chemically known as (- )-n-(2-((2-methyl-4-oxo-1,3-benzodioxan-2-yl)thio)propionyl)glycine. but more generally known as isalsteine, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 3038474. European Medicines Agency schedules Isalsteine in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB08302MIG. The term ISALSTEINE is an International Non-Proprietary Name.

UNSPSC 51162724 Isalsteine, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently posted under this classification. The two recent opportunities tagged to this code—Seminole County's procurement of naloxone and drug deactivation systems, and the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP) RFP for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products—concern pharmaceutical supply, medical devices, and public health product distribution rather than isalsteine (a mineral product). State and local procurement records show minimal relevant activity under this code's stated scope.

The mismatch between the code's nominal category and the actual solicitations posted suggests either misclassification in the state and local records or limited authentic demand for isalsteine through government channels. Buyers evaluating this code should verify whether recent opportunities are being tagged correctly by issuing jurisdictions or whether demand for this commodity is genuinely sparse in state and local procurement pipelines. The code warrants watching for reclassification or genuine solicitations, but current signals do not support active pursuit based on posted opportunities.
