UNSPSC 60104001: Deoxyribonucleic acid DNA models

UNSPSC 60104001 DNA models (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement primarily as a cataloged educational product within broader STEM and science-education solicitations rather than as a standalone procurement category. Recent opportunities show school districts purchasing DNA models as part of comprehensive science curriculum packages, educational supply agreements, and Montessori classroom materials catalogs. The issuing bodies are predominantly large public school districts, with Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida and Cartwright Elementary School District No. 83 in Arizona appearing as active buyers. Work under this code consists of supplying physical DNA model kits and related instructional materials that support hands-on science learning, typically bundled with other biology, chemistry, and STEM educational products rather than procured in isolation.
