Given the cost and importance of IHC reagents the fridge should have a remote alarm on it. It should also be a lab grade fridge and NOT a domestic fridge which will have an auto defrost system to ruin your antibodies “automatically”. I certainly would not trust a diagnosis or a drug therapy if there’s been improper antibody storage. At a minimum use a data logger to monitor the fridge temperature . They cost less than $100.
