UNSPSC 51442204: Gadodiamide hydrate

This classfication denotes a gadolinium-chelate with the molecular formula C16H26N5O8.Gd.3H2O, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 0RPE15QPL0, chemically known as aqua(n-n'-bis(2-((carboxymethyl)((methylcarbamoyl)methyl)amino)ethyl)glycinato(3-))gadolinium hydrate, but more generally known as gadodiamide hydrate, which bears U.S. National Institutes of Health Compound Identifier 60754.

European Medicines Agency schedules gadodiamide hydrate or its base in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB07862MIG. Most nations, for tariff purposes, schedule gadodiamide hydrate under HS 28469000. SMILES: CNC(=O)CN(CCN(CCN(CC(=O)NC)CC(=O)[O-])CC(=O)[O-])CC(=O)[O-].O.O.O.[GD+3].

UNSPSC 51442204 Gadodiamide hydrate is a Commodity code that in practice covers specialized diagnostic and industrial chemical supplies procured by state and local agencies. The recent solicitations under this code show minimal alignment with the code's nominal scope—the two most recent state and local opportunities posted in 2026 are for X-ray system maintenance services (Broward County Aviation Department) and copper sulfate chemicals (Pasco County), neither of which are gadodiamide hydrate or closely related contrast agents. The code appears to serve as a catch-all classification for chemical and equipment-support procurement that does not fit cleanly into narrower commodity categories, suggesting that issuing bodies may use it for diverse, specialized inputs rather than as a targeted marker for gadodiamide hydrate demand alone.

Activity under the code is sparse and geographically scattered across Florida counties. The Broward County Aviation Department issued an RFI (Notice of Intent to Designate Sole Source/Sole Brand) on June 25, 2026, with responses due July 28, 2026, to determine whether maintenance services for proprietary Rapiscan X-ray inspection systems are available from alternative vendors or comparable systems exist. Pasco County issued an as-needed RFQ on June 3, 2026, with proposals due June 26, 2026, for large copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate. The disconnect between the code's stated commodity and the actual work being solicited suggests limited state and local procurement activity under this specific classification for gadodiamide hydrate or direct contrast-agent purchases.
