UNSPSC 51171520: Bismuth aluminate or aluminum bismuth oxide

This classification denotes an anti-ulcer agent, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier JB5Y63JDHJ. European Medicines Agency schedules Bismuth aluminate in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB13079MIG. Bismuth aluminate generally arises in the molecular formula AL6BI2O12. The term 'bismuth aluminate' is a United States Adopted Name designation.

UNSPSC 51171520 Bismuth aluminate or aluminum bismuth oxide is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it show no relevance to the code's nominal chemical compound scope. The three most recent solicitations — Collin County's offender drug testing services RFP, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's therapeutic pharmacy RFI, and the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance's generic pharmaceutical and OTC products RFP — address laboratory testing, pharmaceutical distribution, and pharmacy benefit management rather than bismuth aluminate or aluminum bismuth oxide materials. This mismatch suggests either a classification error in how these opportunities were tagged or that the code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for its intended commodity purpose.

No state and local opportunities explicitly soliciting bismuth aluminate or aluminum bismuth oxide appear in the recent activity block. The code shows little relevant procurement activity at the state and local level.
