Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

The vaccine vial monitor is an excellent monitoring device to assure that only non-heat damaged vaccine is administered to women and children. They help to extend access to immunisation, they increase the efficiency and reduce wastage in the cold-chain and, when visible on all vaccine vials of all types, they will help to streamline distribution systems for immunisation services of the 21st century in all developing countries.
