Not sure if this is the right meaning here, but here is one medical reference:
01.10.2005 - SALMOTYPE® Pig Screen – now available as strip format and bulk ware
The SALMOTYPE® Pig Screen ELISA for the detection of Salmonella antibodies in swine serum and meat juice samples is now even easier to use.
The one-plate format of the assay is now available in microtiter strips. This helps laboratories to process smaller sample numbers and to reduce turnaround time for test results.
The new large package size of the assay includes 20 solid microtiter plates and the corresponding reagents. This format is optimized for automated testing for Salmonella antibodies in swine. The bulk size saves unpacking time and reduces package material. Your work will be comfortable and more efficient.

Bulk ware in this sense seems more commonly used in languages other than English, particularly German.

chemical preparations produced in high volume
The preparation/substance can take liquid or powder.
In your context, it is highly probably that the preparation is/are a regent/regents for blood testing produced in high volume due to high demand (that is, because blood testing is done *everywhere* on this earth ;)

errata:.. REAGENT / REAGENTS .... sigh, so much distracted by my mother tongue spelling of "regen" ;P
