About this product

The Trovan ID100A is the bulk, loose-chip version of the conventional-sized aquaculture microchip — 11.5mm × 2.1mm — supplied without needles and without sterilisation. It's the right choice when you need flexibility, lower per-chip cost at volume, or are integrating the chip into your own delivery system.

Ideal for

• Large-scale broodstock programs handling in-house sterilisation and implantation
• OEM integrators building proprietary RFID products around the Trovan chip
• Fisheries research and aquaculture programs with bulk requirements
• Pearl farming operations integrating chips into custom tagging workflows
• Industrial aquaculture identification — cage tagging, equipment marking, large-scale stock ID
• Research programs needing lower per-chip cost at high volumes

Benefits

• Glass encapsulation — ideal for high-humidity aquaculture environments
• Biocompatible — suitable for implantation in fish, crustaceans, and shellfish (with appropriate sterilisation)
• Lower price per unit than sterile in-needle chips — essential for high-volume programs
• Best read range of the ID100 range — compatible with all Trovan FDX-A reading systems including swim-through, frame-type, AquaPocket, handheld and remote monitoring

Note: Trovan FDX-A microchips are NOT suitable for companion dogs, cats or horses in Australia. These chips are NOT sterile and require appropriate preparation before implantation in animals.
