Why is cold-chain monitoring important?

Cold-chain monitoring is important because it helps to ensure that temperature-sensitive products are stored and transported at the proper temperature. This is particularly important for products such as vaccines, which must be kept within a certain temperature range to remain effective.

By monitoring the temperature of these products throughout the supply chain, it is possible to prevent spoilage and ensure that the products are safe for use. Additionally, cold-chain monitoring can help to reduce waste by enabling the timely detection of temperature excursions, allowing for corrective action to be taken before the products are damaged.

Besides vaccines, refrigerated and frozen food should also be monitored to prevent bacteria. The hability to identify cold-chain breaks is essencial to guarantee the safety of sensitive food such as meat, fish, vegetables and dairy products!
