Time-and-temperature sensitive material tracking
First Claim
1. A system for tracking sensitive materials, the system comprising:
- a radio frequency identification system comprising;
one or more frequency identification labels attached to one or more container units of sensitive material, wherein each frequency identification label includes at least one of information about the material or identification information corresponding to the material within the corresponding container unit; and
one or more antenna for reading the radio-frequency identification labels on each container; and
a reporting system for receiving at least a portion of the information read from the one or more radio-frequency identification labels from the radio frequency identification system, for generating at least one report based on the received information, wherein one of the generated reports includes information about the status of sensitive materials, and the reporting system sends the generated report with the status of sensitive materials to a materials tracking agency.

Abstract
A system and method for tracking sensitive materials in a manufacturing system. The system includes a radio frequency identification component and a reporting system. The radio frequency identification component includes frequency identification labels that are attached to container units of sensitive material. Each frequency identification label includes expiration date information about the material within the container unit that the label is attached to. The radio frequency identification component also includes one, or more antenna for reading the information from the radio-frequency identification labels oh each container. The reporting system receives at least a portion of the information reads from the radio-frequency identification labels from the radio frequency identification system and generates at least one report based on the received information.
