UNSPSC 51442426: Iophenoic acid or ioprocemic acid

This classification denotes a contrast agent, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 73TJC7JGUY. The European Medicines Agency schedules Iophenoic acid in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB08242MIG. Iophenoic acid generally arises in the molecular formula C11H11I3O3.

The term IOPHENOIC ACID is an International Non-Proprietary Name or INN (see World Health Organization INN reference publication, Volume 13, no. 12, 1959, list 3.) SMILES: CCC(CC1=C(C(=C(C=C1I)I)O)I)C(=O)O. Most nations schedule Iophenoic acid or ioprocemic acid under HS 29182980.

UNSPSC 51442426 Iophenoic acid or ioprocemic acid is a Commodity code nominally describing diagnostic contrast media, but the recent state and local solicitations posted under this code reflect radiologic equipment procurement, X-ray system maintenance services, and other unrelated materials with no connection to the code's stated chemical scope. The mismatch between the code's chemical definition and the actual work being solicited—radiologic equipment, extended warranties for X-ray machines, and maintenance service plans for baggage-screening systems—indicates the code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its intended pharmaceutical and diagnostic product purpose. State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged radiologic and X-ray equipment solicitations with this code in error rather than to describe the purchase of iophenoic acid or ioprocemic acid compounds themselves.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include county governments (Maricopa County, Escambia County Correction, Broward County Aviation Department, and Pasco County) and college systems, representing a small and geographically scattered base. Recent opportunities span Arizona, Florida, and no clear concentration. Representative solicitations include Maricopa County's IFB 362910 for radiologic equipment and installation at three colleges (due October 22, 2026), Escambia County Correction's sole-source procurement SSCORALM2526005 for extended warranty coverage on X-ray machines (due August 19, 2026), and Broward County Aviation's RFI BLD2132311F1 contesting a sole-source designation for Rapiscan X-ray system maintenance services (due July 28, 2026). The code does not reflect active procurement of the chemical products its UNSPSC name describes, making pursuit of opportunities under this code contingent on the issuing body's actual intent rather than the taxonomy alignment itself.
