WHAT IS A COLD CHAIN PRODUCT?
Cold chain products refer to products that need to maintain specific low-temperature conditions throughout transportation and storage. These products include, but are not limited to, food products (such as meat, dairy products, fresh vegetables, and fruits), pharmaceuticals (such as vaccines and biological drugs), chemicals, and certain other chemical substances. The purpose of the cold chain is to ensure that products are not affected by ambient temperature fluctuations during transportation and storage, thereby maintaining their quality, safety, and efficacy. Cold chain products usually need to be transported and stored under specific low temperatures to prevent bacterial growth, chemical reactions, or physical changes that could damage the product. Therefore, cold chain management is critical, involving specialized transportation and storage equipment (such as refrigerated trucks, refrigerated containers, refrigerated warehouses, etc.), as well as strict temperature control monitoring and recording. Classification and Suitable Temperature Ranges of Cold Chain Products Depending on their type and characteristics, cold chain products typically need to be transported and...
