In cold chain tracking systems, accuracy and flexibility across different temperatures ranges plays an integral role in monitoring biospecimen integrity. However, while two common cold chain tracking systems are currently available (electronic and physics/chemical), there is not an affordable cold chain tracking mechanism that can be applied to a variety of temperatures while maintaining accuracy for individual vials. Hence, our lab implemented our understanding of biochemical reaction kinetics to develop a new cold chain tracking mechanism using the permanganate/oxalic acid reaction. The permanganate/oxalic acid reaction is characterized by the reduction of permanganate (MnVII) to Mn(II) with Mn(II)-autocatalyzed oxidation of oxalate to CO2, resulting in a pink to colorless visual indicator change when the reaction system is not in the solid state (i.e., frozen or vitrified). Throughout our research, we demonstrate, (i) Improved reaction consistency and accuracy along with extended run times with the implementation of a nitric acid-based labware washing protocol, (ii) Simulated reaction kinetics for the maximum length reaction and 60-minute reaction based on previously developed MATLAB scripts (iii) Experimental reaction kinetics to verify the simulated MATLAB maximum and 60-minute reactions times (iv) Long-term stability of the permanganate/oxalic acid reaction with water or eutectic solutions of sodium perchlorate and magnesium perchlorate at -80°C (v) Reaction kinetics with eutectic solvents, sodium perchlorate and magnesium perchlorate, at 25°C, 4°C, and -8°C (vi) Accelerated reaction kinetics after the addition of varying concentrations of manganese perchlorate (vii) Reaction kinetics of higher concentration reaction systems (5x and 10x; for darker colors), at 25°C (viii) Long-term stability of the 10x higher concentration reaction at -80°C.
