Merck Microchip Bio-Thermo 982 (10/Box)

Description of Merck Microchip Bio-Thermo 982 (10/Box): 

Microchips for Horses - 982 version does not require a Premise Id Number.

Bio-Thermo microchips contain a patented built-in temperature biosensor1, and are therefore able to measure a horse’s temperature at the implantation site. It is an easy, safe, and quick alternative method of taking multiple temperature measurements.

Bio-Thermo microchips2,3 are Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) systems which offer unique and unalterable identification for horses. The microchip is a passive transponder, each about the size of a grain of rice, programmed with a unique 15-digit identification number compatible with ISO Standards 11784 and 11785.

Merck also complies with sterilization standards ISO 11135 and ISO 11607.

Body Temperature is displayed when microchip is scanned with Global Pocket Reader GPR+ which is sold separately.
