UNSPSC 51452900: Anthelmintic organophosphorus compounds

Anthelmintic drugs made from organic compounds that contain phosphorus as an integral part of the molecule.

UNSPSC 51452900 Anthelmintic organophosphorus compounds is a Class code with minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The three opportunities tagged under this code in recent months—a phosphorus control system for a Utah water reclamation facility, a pharmaceutical warehouse piggyback award for antibiotics, and a naloxone and drug deactivation systems purchase in Florida—bear no meaningful connection to anthelmintic organophosphorus compounds as a product category. The code nominally covers pesticides and pharmaceuticals targeting parasitic worm infections, but the recent postings instead reflect wastewater treatment equipment, broad-spectrum antibiotics unrelated to anthelmintic use, and opioid-reversal medications. State and local procurement systems appear to have tagged these opportunities incorrectly or the code has drifted from its intended scope in practice.

No solicitations under this code are currently open or represent active business development targets. The City of Orem, Utah (RFQ, due October 16, 2026) is the only issuing body with a live procurement, but it seeks phosphorus precipitation and removal equipment for sludge treatment—a wastewater engineering product wholly unrelated to anthelmintic compounds. The Illinois Department of Public Health completed an award in August 2026 for doxycycline and ciprofloxacin through cooperative purchasing (MMCAP Infuse), neither of which is anthelmintic in primary indication. Seminole County, Florida posted an IFB in June 2026 for naloxone and drug deactivation systems, again outside the code's scope. The code shows little or no authentic procurement demand in state and local markets under its stated definition and warrants deprioritization pending clarification of how issuing bodies are actually applying it.
