UNSPSC 51442427: Iopromide

This classification denotes an iodinated contrast dye with the molecular formula C18H24I3N3O8, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 712BAC33MZ, chemically known as 1,3-benzenedicarboxamide, n,n-bis(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-5-((methoxyacetyl)amino)-n-methyl-2,4,6-triiodo- but more generally known as iopromide, which bears U.S. National Institutes of Health Compound Identifier 3736. The European Medicines Agency schedules Iopromide in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB08244MIG.

UNSPSC 51442427 Iopromide is a Commodity code that nominally designates a specific pharmaceutical contrast agent, but recent state and local procurement activity shows minimal alignment with this narrow definition. The code appears in solicitations for radiologic and X-ray equipment, maintenance services, and extended warranties — purchases that fall outside the scope of a pharmaceutical ingredient or finished drug product. Maricopa County Community Colleges District solicited radiologic equipment and installation services across three college campuses; Escambia County Corrections procured extended warranty coverage for X-ray machines; and Broward County Aviation Department issued an RFI to determine the availability of maintenance services for Rapiscan X-ray inspection systems from sources other than the original manufacturer. These opportunities reflect purchasing activity centered on medical imaging hardware and associated support services rather than iopromide itself.

The recent opportunities span three states (Arizona, Florida) with no evidence of sustained procurement volume under this code's pharmaceutical definition. Maricopa County's IFB 362910 for radiologic equipment and installation closed October 22, 2026; Escambia County's sole-source procurement SSCORALM2526005 for X-ray equipment extended warranty closed August 19, 2026; and Broward County's RFI BLD2132311F1 for Rapiscan maintenance services remained open through July 28, 2026. Pasco County, Florida's RFQ FP261004 for large copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate, posted June 3, 2026, with responses due June 26, 2026, represents an outlier unrelated to medical imaging or pharmaceutical contrast agents. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal commodity definition; vendors pursuing state and local procurement under this code should verify that future solicitations actually target iopromide supply rather than assume the code's scope from its name alone.
