Maintaining and Verifying the Cold Chain

Temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals and biologics depend on a variety of services and technologies to establish, maintain, and verify proper storage and transport conditions. Table I lists temperature ranges for frozen, refrigerated, and controlled-room-temperature (CRT) products. With regulations evolving regarding thermal protection of these products, proof of compliance is gaining attention. Fortunately, it is becoming easier to automate data collection, analysis, and compliance reporting for controlled-temperature shipping and storage. In addition, solutions increasingly offer sustainability attributes such as reusability, recyclability, or derivation from renewable materials.
