UNSPSC 51192316: Potassium chloride/sodium chloride/dextrose

Electrolyte replacement solutions containing potassium chloride, sodium chloride and dextrose.

UNSPSC 51192316 Potassium chloride/sodium chloride/dextrose is a Commodity code covering chemical and pharmaceutical supply for municipal water treatment, healthcare facilities, and multistate purchasing cooperatives. State and local governments procure intravenous solutions, electrolyte replacements, and water-treatment chemicals under this code, soliciting through municipal utilities, county health departments, state pharmacy cooperative purchasing programs, and independent school districts. The scope spans both medical-grade sterile injectables distributed through authorized pharmaceutical wholesalers and industrial-grade treatment chemicals for municipal water pollution control facilities, with vendors required to meet FDA compliance, cGMP certification, DSCSA supply-chain security standards, and Drug Supply Chain Security Act requirements when pharmaceuticals are involved.

The City of Meriden, Connecticut issued an IFB (solicitation B027-15) for sodium bisulfite chemical supply to its Water Pollution Control Facility with a response deadline of July 29, 2026, requiring $1 million to $2 million in general liability coverage and performance/payment bonds. The Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP), administered by the Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement, posted an RFP (S1070000015802) on January 20, 2026 with a March 26, 2026 deadline to establish multi-award generic pharmaceutical and OTC product contracts across state and local government facilities in Minnesota and Oregon, requiring vendors to source through three authorized wholesalers (AmerisourceBergen/Cencora, Cardinal Health, Morris & Dickson), maintain $5 million commercial general liability coverage, and accept a 3 percent administrative fee with performance penalties of $200 to $1,500 per violation. Recent activity appears concentrated in Midwest and New England jurisdictions, with MMCAP cooperative vehicles driving higher-volume, multi-jurisdiction pharmaceutical procurement alongside smaller municipal chemical-supply RFPs.
