It may include handles and/or wheels for transportation, internal shelving for storage and easy location of blood containers (e.g., bags); a corrosion-resistant (typically stainless steel) interior to minimize the risk of adulteration, contamination, and/or corrosion of contents; and sensors, controls, monitors, chart recorders (week-long recordings are typical), and alarms (over temperature, under temperature, and power failure).)
