UNSPSC 51442439: Sodium iopodate

This classification denotes a diagnostic reagent with the molecular formula C12H12I3N2O2.Na, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier (SRS UNII) F316LLW9WW, chemically known as 2,4,6-triiodo-3-((dimethylaminomethylene)amino)hydrocinnamic acid but more generally known as ipodate sodium, which bears U.S. National Institutes of Health Compound Identifier 5241. European Medicines Agency schedules Sodium iopodate in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB12441MIG.

UNSPSC 51442439 Sodium iopodate is a Commodity code that nominally names a contrast agent used in radiologic imaging, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show little alignment with the code's specific product scope. The four opportunities posted since June 2026 span radiologic equipment procurement and installation, X-ray equipment warranty coverage, X-ray system maintenance services, and copper sulfate chemicals—a misalignment that signals the code may be applied inconsistently across issuing bodies or that the code name does not reflect the actual purchasing pattern. Of the four records, only two involve radiologic or X-ray equipment at all (Maricopa County's radiologic equipment and installation at three colleges, and Escambia County Correction's extended warranty for X-ray machines), while the Broward County Aviation Department's RFI concerns specialized maintenance for Rapiscan X-ray inspection systems, and Pasco County's June 2026 RFQ covers copper sulfate chemicals unrelated to radiologic imaging. No opportunities in the block explicitly solicit sodium iopodate or similar radiologic contrast media.

The issuing bodies represent county-level procurement across three Florida jurisdictions (Escambia, Broward, and Pasco counties) plus Maricopa County, Arizona, with no repeat buyers in the recent window. Geographic activity clusters in Florida (three opportunities) with one in Arizona. Representative recent solicitations include Maricopa County's IFB 362910 for radiologic equipment and installation at three colleges, due October 22, 2026, and Escambia County Correction's sole-source procurement (SSCORALM2526005) for extended X-ray equipment warranty, due August 19, 2026. The code shows minimal concrete activity aligned to its product definition and does not support a clear procurement trend under the nominal Sodium iopodate scope.
