Description

Vaccine carrier capable of real-time monitoring and its control method {REAL-TIME MORNITORING VACCINE CARRIER AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF}

The present invention relates to a vaccine carrier capable of real-time monitoring and a control method therefor, and more particularly, to a vaccine carrier capable of real-time monitoring in a center and a vaccine carrier capable of real-time monitoring in a center while being able to store a vaccine at a low temperature using liquid helium.

As the people's income level has improved, the demand for fresh food is increasing, and the COVID-19 outbreak is further highlighting the need for cold chains. The cold chain industry is expanding to the pharmaceutical sector, which not only maintains the quality of food from the farm to the table, but also requires strict temperature control, such as vaccines.

Meanwhile, it is important to develop a vaccine, but a war on the distribution of vaccines is expected. How to safely and efficiently distribute the produced vaccine, and how to ensure the efficiency and usefulness of inoculation is emerging as a new concern.

The storage temperature at which a vaccine is adequately effective varies from vaccine to vaccine. The WHO divides vaccines into six groups, from A to F, according to sensitivity. The oral polio vaccine is in group A, which is most resistant to temperature changes, and influenza is also in group B, which is relatively resistant to temperature. On the other hand, hepatitis B or pneumococcal vaccines belong to group F, which is very sensitive to temperature, and Japanese encephalitis also belongs to group E, which is very sensitive to temperature. In addition, some vaccines such as measles and BCG, which are sensitive to light, must be distributed in dark reagent bottles that do not allow light to pass through.

Among them, the nucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine developed jointly by Germany's BioNtech and Pfizer should be stored at minus 94 degrees Celsius, and the COVID-19 vaccine being developed by Moderna of the United States should be stored at minus 20 degrees Celsius. RNA itself is unstable, but the adjuvant it is introduced with is unstable, so it must be kept at a very low temperature. Vaccines using biomaterials such as proteins are sensitive to temperature, so no matter how efficient a vaccine is, if it does not maintain an appropriate temperature during the distribution process, its efficacy will disappear. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), up to 50% of vaccines are discarded because they fail to properly maintain temperature during distribution.

Conventional vaccine cryogenic storage device requires a separate cryogenic device, so there is a problem in that the configuration is complicated and the manufacturing cost is greatly increased.
