UNSPSC 51442403: Calcium iopodate

This classification denotes a diagnostic reagent with the molecular formula 2C12H12I3N2O2.CA, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 50S7W5M9ZZ. The term calcium iopodate is a U.S. FDA designation. SMILES: IC1C(CCC(=O)O)C(I)CC(I)C1/N=C/N(C)C.IC1C(CCC(=O)O)C(I)CC(I)C1/N=C/N(C)C.[CA]. Most nations schedule Calcium iopodate under HS 29252900.

UNSPSC 51442403 Calcium iopodate is a Commodity code that nominally names a specific iodinated radiographic contrast agent, but recent state and local opportunities show the code is being applied to a broader scope of radiologic and X-ray equipment, maintenance services, and related procurement rather than the chemical agent itself. State and local buyers soliciting under this code include county correction departments, county aviation authorities, county education systems (community college districts), and regional municipalities. The work being tagged to this code spans radiologic equipment procurement and installation, extended warranty coverage for specialized X-ray systems, and maintenance or repair services for proprietary X-ray inspection equipment — all of which fall outside the nominal chemical-agent scope of the code name. The mismatch between the code's stated substance and what is actually being bought suggests either classification drift or systematic miscoding by issuing bodies.

Recent activity clusters in Florida and Arizona. Maricopa County Community Colleges District posted IFB 362910 in October 2026 for radiologic equipment and installation services at three college locations, with proposals due October 22, 2026. Escambia County Correction issued sole-source solicitation SSCORALM2526005 in August 2026 for an extended warranty on X-Ray machines (serial numbers ASTTC160SM4803-4804-4805), with responses due August 19, 2026. Broward County Aviation Department issued an RFI (BLD2132311F1) in June 2026 to establish whether maintenance services for Rapiscan X-ray inspection systems (600 series, 900 series, VOTI XR3D, Gemini) are available from vendors other than the sole-source manufacturer, with responses due July 28, 2026. Pasco County posted an RFQ in June 2026 for copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate on an as-needed basis (response due June 26, 2026), which is unrelated to the radiologic equipment and X-ray systems that dominate the other three opportunities. The code shows limited recent volume and significant category-application inconsistency across issuing bodies.
