Because they are very sensitive to temperature variation, vaccines need to be stored in the temperature range of 2°C to 8°C, in all their logistical process, the so-called Cold Chain. The temperature control must be strict, as it is the maintenance of the vaccine in this range that maintains its effectiveness.
And how to know if the vaccine was in the whole process really at that temperature? As the condition is not perceptible by the eyes, the Brazilian ANVISA Cold Chain Manual establishes all conservation rules, including temperature monitoring.
The temperature monitoring system is a technology present in Biotecno scientific refrigerators, both for vaccines and for medicines, thermolabile, oncology, blood and its components. It remains in operation 24 hours a day, and has additional security features to issue alerts if there is any risk of temperature deviation. The monitoring system is fully automated and reduces human intervention. In addition to presenting the data on the camera own display, it allows remote access to conservation status, via the internet, and also records all conservation history. These records can be extracted in a report, according to the standards of the Health Surveillance and, thus, it allows to control the storage and the integrity of the material.
Store vaccines in your clinic or pharmacy correctly in Biotecno scientific refrigerators, registered with the Brazilian Ministry of Health/ANVISA and certified by the North American FDA. The brand that stored the first dose of the vaccine against coronavirus applied in Brazil.
