Identification
- All transponders are supplied in single use sterile needle assemblies. Transponder application is by minimally invasive, non-surgical, sub-cutaneous injection.
- Each transponder comes with its own unique 10 digit number which can be read-only or re-programmable to your own animal ID research protocols.
- There is a transponder for non-invasive and accurate temperature monitoring for best welfare and research results
- Provides error-free animal identification and data transfer to your computer
- A range of transponder scanning equipment is available including hand-held and bench mounted for convenience.
- Includes data collection systems for collecting additional information such as weight and caliper measurements. Data can be downloaded directly to a computer so managing your research data and observations is more efficient.
- Compatible with all facility management software programmes
DASHost™ Communication Software
DASHost™ Communication Software presents a simple method of transferring data to your computer. This Windows application is the interface between BMDS readers and PC’s. It is a menu driven software solution enabling users to receive, control and route data from various sources such as transponders, scales, calipers and more. Data can be saved to a file or inserted directly into widely used applications such as Microsoft Excel™ – or virtually any other program.
DCS-1 Digital Caliper System
The DCS-1 Digital Caliper for measuring tumor masses and other soft tissues in laboratory animals has a clear digital read-out and a serial port for data transfer. It can be connected directly to a computer, but it can also be plugged into various BMDS reader systems, thus allowing the user to match animal identification data with the corresponding caliper measurements. The caliper is equipped with a “constant force mechanism”, ensuring that all objects are measured with identical pressure. This way, the caliper measurements become completely operator independent.
DCS-2 Digital Caliper System
The DCS-2 Digital Caliper for measuring tumor masses and other soft tissues in laboratory animals has a clear digital read-out and a serial port for data transfer. It can be connected directly to a computer, however it can also be plugged into various BMDS reader systems, thus allowing the user to match animal identification data with the corresponding caliper measurements. It is equipped with specially accomodated jaws to protect the animal from injuries.
DAS-8001 Data Acquisition System
The DAS-8001 console system programs and scans IPTT programmable temperature transponders and IPT programmable transponders. After exchanging probes the DAS-8001 scans IMI read-only transponders. The system can be connected to a broad range of personal computers and digital devices, allowing the user to work with almost any peripheral device, such as calipers, weighing scales and barcode readers. On board menu structures allow independent keyboard-free operation, making the DAS-8001 the perfect stand alone data collection system.
IMI-500 Read Only Transponder
The IMI-500 Read Only Transponder is ideal for rodents and small animals. The transponders are read only but with the additional mapping function the users own animal ID codes can be utilised.
DAS-8006 Wireless Reader System for IMI
The DAS-8006 Reader is a hand-held device for reading read-only transponders. The reader has a bright display for displaying data and for accessing menu options. The user menu includes features such as time stamp, ID storage, ID mapping, setup, and battery level. The reader’s control panel gives a visual indication that the reader is in scanning or programming mode, and temporarily overrides the display to minimize interference. The lithium rechargeable batteries are user replaceable.
IMI-1000 Read Only Transponder
The IMI-1000 Read Only Transponder is similar in function to the IMI-500 but the slightly larger size makes them more convenient for larger animals. The transponders are “read only” but with the additional mapping function the users own animal ID codes can be utilised.
XPT-100 Programmable Transponder
The XPT-100 Programmable Transponder is our smallest programmable transponder yet! The XPT-100 is smaller in size than the IPT-300, yet identical in use! It can be programmed up to 32 alphanumeric characters that may represent anything from a simple ID number to information such as project number, species, sex, cage number ect. If regulations (GLP) require information to be permanent, the ID code can be irreversibly locked.
DAS-8027IUS Reader System for XPT/IPTT
The DAS-8027 Reader is a hand-held device for reading programmable transponders. The reader has a bright display showing data and menu options. The user menu includes features such as time stamp, ID storage, ID mapping, setup, and battery level. The reader’s control panel gives a visual indication that the reader is in scanning or programming mode. The lithium rechargeable batteries are user replaceable. A direct power line will recharge the battery. An integrated serial USB port provides an easy way to transfer data from the reader to and from the computer
DAS-8016 IMI Pocket Reader
The DAS-8016 Pocket Reader is a handheld electronic device for reading and displaying the user ID in BMDS IMI-400, IMI- 500 and IMI-1000 transponders. This system is a compact and completely self contained portable reader, with the ability to be used in a wired (USB port or Keyboard out) or wireless (Communication Module or Bluetooth) configuration.
IPT-300 Programmable Transponders
The IPT-300 Programmable Transponder can be programmed up to 32 alphanumeric characters that may represent anything from a simple ID number to information such as project number, species, sex, cage number ect. If regulations (GLP) require information to be permanent, the ID code can be irreversibly locked.
DAS-8017 XPT/ IPT/ IPTT Pocket Reader
The DAS-8017 Pocket Reader is a handheld electronic device for reading and displaying the user ID in BMDS XPT, IPT and IPTT* transponders (*reads the ID but not the temperature). This system is a compact and completely self contained portable reader, with the ability to be used in a wired (USB port or Keyboard out) or wireless (Communication Module or Bluetooth) configuration.
