IPTT-300 / IPTT-300-HTEC

IPTT-300

Injected with a syringe-like action, IPTT-300 transponders are preloaded in a disposable needle assembly. The ergonomic design of this one-piece tool fully integrates the handle, stainless steel needle, and drive pin. Packaged in boxes of 100, needle assemblies (one transponder each) are processed through an ethylene oxide cycle for sterilization. No assembly is required. Pick it up, remove the needle cap, implant the transponder, and dispose of— all in one clean operation.

Programmable memory onboard each chip eliminates need for cross-referencing data files used by standard read-only transponders
May be programmed in the needle assembly or after implantation
May be appended, edited, or locked for user security purposes
Passive, battery-free
Biocompatible; suitable for all laboratory animal species
Memory: 32 alphanumeric characters (non-volatile data)
Temperature: Factory calibrated range of 90°F–110°F (32°C – 43°C)

The IPTT-300 is compatible with BMDS DASHost software which facilitates importing data into widely used applications such as Excel, offers a menu-driven solution to collecting data from various sources (scales, calipers, etc.) and provides an ingenious method to receive, map, control, and route data. Despite its small size, it has a read distance of 3 inches, making it suitable for universal applications. Designed for harmless implantation, BMDS Micro-Transponders is the most convenient, humane, reliable, and cost-effective method for automated animal identification.

IPTT-300 HTEC

Double calibrated set points at 37.0°C and 42.0°C.

Temperature Range is 20.0°C to 42.0°C (Statement of 42°C is because we do not test above that temperature but in all cases, higher temperatures can maintain the same low-temperature ranges if tested).

Resolution is 0.1°C. Accuracy is 0.2°C from 34°C to 42°C; 0.5°C from 30°C up to 34°C; 1.0°C from true at 20°C up to 30°C.

Programmable memory onboard each chip eliminates need for cross-referencing data files used by standard read-only transponders
Unique specialized calibration at 37°C and 42°C allows for increased accuracy
Temperature: Factory calibrated range of 20°C – 42°C (68°F–108°F)
May be programmed in the needle assembly or after implantation
Information may be appended, edited, or locked for animal security purposes
Passive, battery-free
Biocompatible; suitable for all laboratory animal species

IPTT-300 / IPTT-300-HTEC

Overview

With our IPTT-300 researchers can program their own animal identification codes onto the glass encapsulated microchip and access their data—plus the subject’s subcutaneous temperature—with every scan.

This battery-free read/write Implantable Programmable Temperature Transponder™ enables you to program up to 32 alphanumeric characters onto the transponder in any coding sequence you choose, transforming each animal into a walking mini-database, and representing such information as the study number, genotype, investigator name, project number, and animal DOB.

Designed for harmless non-surgical implantation, BMDS transponders are convenient, humane, and reliable. Approximately 14 millimeters in length by 2 millimeters in diameter, the IPTT-300 transponder features a patented anti-migration device, which anchors it securely to tissue at the implant site. You can even retrieve data decades after a study ends if you remove the transponder with a tissue sample and place it into long-term storage, in cold or liquid preservative.

Introducing the IPTT-300 HTEC

A specialized transponder designed for the increased accuracy needed by researchers performing temperature critical research. The IPTT-300 HTEC can be programmed with a user-assigned animal identification codes stored in memory on the glass encapsulated microchip. The model subcutaneous temperature can also be displayed with every scan.

This battery-free read/write temperature transponder enables you to program up to 32 alphanumeric characters in any coding sequence, transforming each animal into a walking mini-database, and representing such information as the study number, genotype, investigator name, project number, and animal DOB.
