UNSPSC 51192317: Dextrose/Sodium chloride

Dextrose and Sodium Chloride Injection, USP (dextrose and sodium chloride inj) is a sterile, nonpyrogenic solution for fluid and electrolyte replenishment and caloric supply in single dose containers for intravenous administration. It contains no antimicrobial agents.

UNSPSC 51192317 Dextrose/Sodium chloride (Commodity) spans pharmaceuticals and medical supplies procured by health care systems, emergency services, and municipal utilities, though recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show limited activity directly aligned with the nominal scope. The most relevant recent solicitation is the City of Tucson Fire Department's RFP for basic and advanced life support (BLS and ALS) pharmaceuticals and supplies with VendNovation vending machine software and support services (RFP 260217, proposals due June 24, 2026), which encompasses a 251-line-item price schedule including glucometers, oxygen delivery equipment, IV administration sets, airway management devices, and medications delivered with 48-hour turnaround and 95 percent minimum fill-rate maintenance. Other procurement activity tagged to this code diverges significantly from dextrose/sodium chloride specificity: Dane County's RFP for comprehensive pharmaceutical services to Badger Prairie Health Care Center (RFP 2026RFP061PR, due October 22, 2026) addresses long-term care pharmacy operations including medication dispensing, barcode scanning, and quality assurance across multiple payor sources, with a local-vendor preference of 5-10 points; West Texas Centers for Mental Health and Mental Retardation's RFP for prescription and pharmacy services across 35 sites in 23 counties (RFP RX1001, due August 21, 2026) encompasses psychiatric and neurological medication management with 48-hour standard and 24-hour emergency turnaround; and Collier County's Notice of Intent to Single Source Pediatric Emergency Standards, Inc. (Handtevy mobile application for drug-dosage calculation and EMS protocol integration, protest deadline September 24, 2026) addresses clinical decision support rather than dextrose or sodium chloride supply. Activity appears concentrated in Florida and broader Southwest and Texas regions, with municipal fire departments, county health systems, and mental health organizations as primary issuing bodies.

The code shows minimal recent activity in goods procurement specifically focused on dextrose/sodium chloride commodities at the state and local level. The sole tangentially related opportunity is the City of Tempe's RFP for sodium chloride (course white crystal solar salt) for water treatment plants (RFP 27045, due October 21, 2026), which targets industrial salt supply rather than pharmaceutical or medical-grade application and therefore falls outside typical dextrose/sodium chloride procurement patterns. No recent solicitations from school districts, transit authorities, or other state and local categories targeted this commodity directly. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests either limited state and local utilization of this specific UNSPSC category for dextrose/sodium chloride, misclassification in source systems, or channeling of pharmaceutical supply through broader service contracts that do not itemize individual active ingredients at commodity level.
