Specs & features.
Veterinarians use the Animal ID Microchip (1.4*8mm) as a reliable and secure method of permanent identification. Housed in a durable, biocompatible bio-glass capsule, it operates via Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. When scanned by a universal veterinary reader, the chip transmits a unique 15-digit identification number. This number links to a global or national database containing the owner's contact and medical details, facilitating the safe return of lost pets or livestock.

- Miniature Size: Measuring only 1.4 × 8mm, it is significantly smaller than the standard 2.12 × 12mm microchips. This allows for a much smaller needle (often 25G to 27G), drastically reducing pain upon insertion.
- Anti-Migration Technology: Many of these mini chips are coated with a specialized substance like Parylene C. This coating promotes tissue adhesion, preventing the chip from migrating or slipping under the animal's skin.
- Global Compatibility: The chips utilize the standard 134.2 kHz FDX-B protocol. They strictly adhere to ISO 11784 and ISO 11785 standards, making them readable by any standard veterinary scanner used in clinics globally.
