This classification denotes a combination drug defined by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in its (VA's) National Drug File (NDF), which falls under VA Drug Class DE400. This VA Drug Class (DE400) classifies this compound as belonging to the group SOAPS/SHAMPOOS/SOAP-FREE CLEANSERS.

UNSPSC 51473905 Citric acid/sodium laureth sulfate is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code—athletic training services for fire and police departments (City of Tucson), medical aid supplies for fire rescue (City of Tampa), and a pharmacy benefit program request for information (Texas HHS Commission)—do not involve citric acid or sodium laureth sulfate purchases. The code appears to have been applied to these solicitations in error or as a secondary tag unrelated to the primary scope of work being procured.

No state and local contract opportunities reflecting actual procurement of citric acid, sodium laureth sulfate, or related cleaning, personal-care, or industrial chemical products appear in the recent activity block. Without concrete evidence of current buying under the Commodity code, pursuit decisions should be informed by direct market outreach to state and local purchasing offices in the health, environmental, or facilities management sectors where such chemicals are typically consumed, rather than reliance on the code's recent solicitation history.
