UNSPSC 51241215 Podophyllum resin is a Commodity code that state and local governments do not currently buy under its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show a significant mismatch: the City of Austin posted an IFB on July 27, 2026 for liquid aluminum sulfate (alum) used in wastewater treatment phosphorus removal, and the City of Tampa posted an ITB on April 24, 2026 for medical aid supplies including bandages, antiseptic sprays, and first aid kits. Neither solicitation relates to podophyllum resin, a plant-derived pharmaceutical or botanical product. The tagging appears to reflect catalog or system errors rather than genuine procurement activity aligned with the code's definition.

The two visible opportunities show activity only from municipal water and fire departments in Texas and Florida, with no indication of broader state or local purchasing patterns under this code. The City of Austin's alum solicitation required responses by August 25, 2026, with local and small business preferences available; the City of Tampa's medical supplies ITB closed on April 9, 2025. Without evidence of actual podophyllum resin procurement by state or local governments, this code does not represent a viable market segment for business development purposes at this time.
