not the door
does the fridge in a hotel room count as a fridge
freeze thaw cycling is the risk, not one freeze. that is my read of it anyway
buy a thermometer. mine reads 6.2 on the door and two degrees lower at the back
the door swings four or five degrees every time somebody opens it. the back barely moves
i log the fridge temperature daily and the room has never let me forget it
log it

cold pack arrived completely liquid, does that mean anything
is a five pound fridge thermometer actually worth it
flying with vials, hand luggage or checked
two to eight
do i need to worry about light exposure or is that overthinking
unopened and in-use in the same place is fine. just keep the in-use one where you can reach it
