Overview
Product Specifications

LifeChip® radio frequency identification microchips offer a unique and unalterable means of identifying horses and ponies of all ages, breeds and sizes.

  • Each is about the size of a grain of rice and contains a passive transponder programmed with a unique 15 digit ISO-compliant number; once in place, these microchips can be read by any Merck Animal Health ISO-compliant reader
  • Numbers can be registered in each horse’s individual breed/discipline registry or kept in farm/ranch files for future reference
  • Microchips provide proof of ownership in the event a horse is lost or stolen, as well as proof of identity for horses involved in breeding operations, competitive sports and international/domestic travel
  • ISO-compliant and National Animal Identification System approved
  • Each LifeChip® microchip is capped with a patented biocompatible material called BioBond®, which secures the microchip to the administration site within 24 hours of placement
  • Horses of all ages, sizes and breeds can receive LifeChip®; foals can receive a microchip at the time of their neonatal examination
  • LifeChip® with Bio-Thermo® technology gives an easy, quick way to check a horse’s body temperature
  • Temperature readings are taken from the neck rather than the hindquarters; risk of injury to the operator is reduced in the event the horse is distressed or uncooperative
