UNSPSC 51442209: Gadoteric acid

This classification denotes a gadolinium contrast media with the molecular formula C16H24N4O8.H+.Gd, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier QVF9Y6955W, chemically known as hydrogen (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetato(4-))gadolinate(1-). but more generally known as gadoteric acid, which bears U.S. National Institutes of Health Compound Identifier 3085828. The European Medicines Agency schedules Gadoteric acid in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB07865MIG.

The World Health Organization schedules gadoteric acid in its Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) Classification. SMILES: [Gd].OC(=O)CN1CCN(CCN(CCN(CC1)CC(=O)O)CC(=O)O)CC(=O)O. Most nations schedule Gadoteric acid under HS 28469000.

UNSPSC 51442209 Gadoteric acid is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it show minimal alignment with the code's nominal scope. The two most recent solicitations—Broward County Aviation Department's June 2026 RFI for Rapiscan X-ray system maintenance services and Pasco County's June 2026 as-needed RFQ for copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate—involve equipment servicing and bulk chemical supply, neither of which falls within the diagnostic imaging contrast-agent category the code name suggests. The code shows little relevant recent activity, and the opportunities logged against it appear to reflect data-entry misclassification rather than genuine state and local procurement demand for gadoteric acid itself.

Without a clear signal of active procurement for the product the code nominally covers, this code presents minimal pursuit opportunity at present. Business development professionals should verify the actual UNSPSC assignments in any upcoming opportunities before investing bidding resources, as the current tagging pattern suggests either miscoding at source or a disconnect between the state and local procurement systems and the taxonomy hierarchy. Monitor for any corrected or properly classified solicitations, but do not assume this code reflects genuine gadoteric acid demand based on the recent record.
