UNSPSC 51172004: Dimethyl sulfoxide

This classification denotes a sulfur compound with the molecular formula C2H6OS, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier YOW8V9698H, chemically known as sulfoxide, dimethyl but generally known as dimethyl sulfoxide, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 679. European Medicines Agency schedules Dimethyl sulfoxide in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB07176MIG.

UNSPSC 51172004 Dimethyl sulfoxide is a Commodity code that maps nominally to chemical solvents but shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department's RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services—concerns drug-screening laboratory operations, immunoassay and confirmatory testing methodologies, and collection-site staffing. The scope includes two physical collection facilities in Plano and McKinney, randomized testing notifications via Interactive Voice Response, SAMHSA- and CAP-certified laboratory work, and ancillary testing modalities such as oral fluid and hair analysis. The code assignment does not reflect the actual work being solicited, which is laboratory testing services rather than dimethyl sulfoxide procurement.

Collin County in north-central Texas is the sole issuing body named in recent opportunities under this code. The RFP carries an estimated contract value of $600,000 and requires responses by July 23, 2026 (note: the posted date precedes the deadline, indicating this may be a historical or corrected entry). The successful vendor must hold SAMHSA, Texas DPS, or CAP laboratory certification and staff two collection sites for approximately 5.5 days per week plus five Saturdays annually, with annual testing demand of roughly 25,000 tests across five-panel and six-panel screening protocols. Pricing is structured per-test across three service models—screening only, confirmation after screening, and screening with automatic confirmation of positives—with no additional surcharges permitted. The contract term runs two years from September 1, 2026, with three optional one-year renewal periods. This code shows minimal recent solicitation activity aligned to its nominal chemical product scope in state and local procurement.
