UNSPSC 51302330: Butoconazole nitrate

This classification denotes an antifungal agent with the molecular formula C19H17Cl3N2S.HNO3, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 4805237NP5, chemically known as 1h-imidazole, 1-(4-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-((2,6-dichlorophenyl)thio)butyl)-, mononitrate but more generally known as butoconazole nitrate, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 47471. European Medicines Agency schedules Butoconazole nitrate in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB00918MIG.

UNSPSC 51302330 Butoconazole nitrate is a Commodity code that in practice covers pharmaceutical and chemical treatment products used in municipal and local government operations, though the recent solicitation activity shows little alignment with the code's nominal pharmaceutical scope. The City of Austin's IFB 2200 CSH1061, posted July 27, 2026 with bids due August 25, 2026, sought liquid aluminum sulfate (alum) for wastewater treatment—a chemical coagulant used to remove soluble phosphorus at the activated sludge stage—with an estimated annual volume of 179,200 gallons. A separate Tampa Fire Rescue ITB posted April 24, 2026 targeted medical aid supplies including antiseptic sprays, hydrogen peroxide, aspirin, pain relievers, bandages, and first aid kits. The mismatch between the code's name and these recent opportunities suggests the taxonomy classification may not reflect current state and local procurement activity under this code, or that issuers are applying it inconsistently to chemical and pharmaceutical products bought by utilities and emergency services.

Recent activity appears limited to a small number of issuing bodies: the City of Austin's water utility and the City of Tampa's fire department. Austin's alum procurement imposed local and small business preferences (5% discount for businesses headquartered in the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos MSA on bids up to $500,000, 3% on larger bids), NSF approval and AWWA B403 compliance, and required bidders to maintain minimum inventory of 9,000 gallons and identify primary and alternate distribution facilities within 500 miles of Austin. Tampa's medical supplies ITB included set-asides for City-certified Small Local Business Enterprises and Underutilized Woman and Minority Owned Business Enterprises, with a departmental budget of $100,000. The two opportunities span Texas (Austin) and Florida (Tampa), but the limited recent record and divergence between code name and actual procurement scope make this a low-activity code for business development purposes.
