RFID Technology Secures Vaccine Safety

Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is a wireless communication technology that identifies targets through non-contact data communication between readers and tags. The pandemic has accelerated the market development in the food and drug safety traceability industry, as well as the application of RFID technology in medical, transportation and food safety fields. The traceability management system based on RFID technology achieves the tracking and control of medicine throughout the whole process, showing obvious superiority in pandemic prevention and control.

In response to the rapid and complex challenges raised by COVID-19 vaccines, Reading Hospital in Pennsylvania has deployed RFID technology to track the status of each vial taken out from the ULT freezer. With the help of RFID technology, the hospital can ensure that the samples in the freezer are counted correctly and technology can monitor the expiration date of vaccines in real time.

In addition to the requirements of vaccines being stored at ultra-low temperatures, RFID technology has been used in pharmacy refrigerators with more mature applications. 

As the supplier of COVID-19 products & solutions, Haier Biomedical RFID pharmacy refrigerators meet the storage requirements of 2-8°C. It is designed with cutting-edge RFID technology, the entire process is automatically and smartly controlled from manufacturer to patients. Take the Haier Biomedical HYC-390R RFID refrigerator as an example, it can automatically sense the information and storage status of the vaccine in real time, ensuring every batch of vaccine received by the patient is securely managed. Through the intelligent Internet of Things (IoT) system based on RFID technology, the Haier Biomedical HYC-390R RFID refrigerator can achieve the following:

🔹Automatic inventory check and one-key query；

🔹Automatic record of warehouse-in and warehouse-out information, precisely tracing when, where and who accessed the vaccine information

🔹Automatic early warning of the validity period to eliminate waste.

🔹Cloud based big data supports a shared platform, permitting manufacturers, hospitals, quality control for real time monitoring, technical data thus becomes the origin of productivity.

In addition, the precise temperature control and real-time temperature monitoring of the Haier Biomedical HYC-390R RFID refrigerator ensures that the vaccines are always at 2°C- 8°C storage temperature. When the cabinet reaches the critical temperature, the temperature alarm will be automatically triggered to guarantee the safety of vaccines.

With the support of RFID technology, the Haier Biomedical HYC-390R refrigerator can achieve simple, efficient, safe and accurate management of vaccines. On the one hand, it can accurately control the storage and usage of vaccines to achieve the accuracy of inventory, it also ensures the vaccines safety; while at the same time it can optimize the procurement process to avoid vaccine shortages and inventory accumulation. As well, the intelligent process control system can also improve the effectiveness and reliability of vaccine management, saving manpower investment and avoiding management errors.

Haier Biomedical insists on the intelligent protection of life by empowering science and technology, and is committed to provide the best biological cold chain products and solutions to the world, enhancing the safety and protection of all vaccines!
