HOW SHOULD WE TRANSPORT VACCINES AND MEDICAL PRODUCTS?

1. Cold chain transportation:

-Refrigerated transportation: Most vaccines and some sensitive pharmaceutical products need to be transported within a temperature range of 2 ° C to 8 ° C. This temperature control can prevent vaccine spoilage or failure.
-Frozen transportation: Some vaccines and biological products need to be transported and stored at lower temperatures (usually -20 ° C or lower) to maintain their stability.

2. Special containers and packaging materials:

-Use specialized containers with temperature control functions, such as refrigerated boxes, freezers, or insulated packaging with dry ice and coolant, to maintain the appropriate temperature.
-Some highly sensitive products may also need to be stored and transported in a nitrogen environment.

3. Monitoring and tracking system:

-Use temperature recorders or real-time temperature monitoring systems during transportation to ensure that the temperature control of the entire chain meets standards.
-Real time monitoring of the transportation process through GPS tracking system ensures the safety and timeliness of transportation.
