VALIDATION
The product we tested (ISTA-7E) and validated is the closest product we have to the product you
have requested e.g. The red cooler bag. Our test was performed using two phase 5 PCM‘s. This is
the proper method for assuring that the medication inside will not freeze as the PCM will not drop
below 32° at any point during transit. We started with two due to the space limitation and unknown
variable (size of the payload). You could count on gaining another hour and a half per each PCM
added generally speaking. Also, results would improve in room temperature conditions. The ISTA-7E
test that was conducted reaches temperatures beyond 85°F
SPACE GAUGING
There is another method using performance ice packs that freeze below 32° as a solid block. This
product could be utilized with the method of space gauging. Space gauging will create a protective
layer of space between the ice packs and the medication, creating an ambient chill environment
within the cooler itself. This method will result in longer chill time, but is risky due to the possibility of
freezing the medication if not handled properly. The “red cooler bag“ that you are currently using
appears to be utilizing this method. We see room for improvement.
KELVIN TM
The ultimate solution is Kelvin tm. Kelvin has been preliminarily tested to maintain temperatures
between 0 - 10°c for more than 24 hours. It is the safest and most reliable product available for
personal transport of medication.
