UNSPSC 51172335: Gadopenamide

This classification denotes a gadolinium-chelate with the molecular formula C22H34N5O10.Gd, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier VC7M3XD17L, chemically known as (n,n-bis(2-((carboxymethyl)((morpholinocarbonyl)methyl)amino)ethyl)glycinato(3-))gadolinium but more generally known as gadopenamide, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 3034033. European Medicines Agency schedules Gadopenamide in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB07863MIG.

UNSPSC 51172335 Gadopenamide, a Commodity code, does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this designation. 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 — involves comprehensive laboratory testing operations including immunoassay screening, LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation, oral fluid and hair testing methodologies, and electronic result reporting tied to criminal justice supervision. Gadopenamide, a paramagnetic gadolinium-based contrast agent used in medical imaging, bears no relationship to drug testing procurement. The code appears to be either a classification error in the state and local contracting system or applied too broadly to encompass drug screening services generally rather than the specific pharmaceutical product it names.

Collin County in Texas issued this RFP on September 25, 2026, with proposals due July 23, 2026 (an apparent date error in the source). The county sought to staff two collection sites in Plano and McKinney with approximately 25,031 annual tests across five-panel and six-panel screening protocols, with an estimated annual value of $600,000 over a potential five-year term including three optional one-year renewals. Lab certification from SAMHSA, Texas DPS, or CAP is required. The county reserved the right to award to multiple vendors and scored proposals on vendor understanding, firm qualifications, client references, cost, and optional phase demonstrations. Without additional recent opportunities tagged to this code, it is not possible to characterize broader state and local activity or geographic concentration under UNSPSC 51172335.
