RFID Temperature Sensing Tag for Animals – Bioglass Microchip for Pet & Livestock ID & Real-Time Health Monitoring
Product Overview
What Is Our Animal RFID Temperature Sensing Tag?
Our RFID temperature sensing tag is a compact, implantable bioglass microchip integrating passive RFID technology with high-precision temperature sensors. It delivers two core functions: unique animal identification and continuous temperature monitoring, enabling proactive health management for pets and livestock.
Core Benefits: Dual-Function Identification + Temperature Monitoring
The tag eliminates separate devices for ID and health tracking, reducing operational complexity for veterinarians and livestock managers. It enables real-time detection of abnormal temperature changes, supporting early intervention for potential health issues.

Core Features
Passive RFID Technology for Maintenance-Free Operation
The tag uses passive RFID, harvesting energy from compatible readers to power ID transmission and temperature sensing. No batteries are required, ensuring a long operational lifespan without replacement or charging.
Unique UID for Unambiguous Animal Identification
Each tag is pre-programmed with a 64-bit unique identifier (UID) that cannot be modified. This UID links to animal health records, enabling accurate tracking of individual pets or livestock across locations.
ISO 11784/11785 Compliance for Global Compatibility
The tag adheres to ISO 11784 and 11785 standards, making it compatible with RFID readers used worldwide. This allows seamless integration into global animal identification systems.
Bioglass Material for Biocompatibility & Durability
Constructed from medical-grade bioglass (type 1), the tag is non-toxic, non-allergenic, and corrosion-resistant. It integrates with animal tissues without causing irritation, ensuring long-term safety.
High-Precision Temperature Sensing for Proactive Health Care
The integrated temperature sensor provides clinical-grade accuracy, enabling early detection of fever or hypothermia. This supports timely veterinary intervention, reducing the risk of disease progression.
Application Scenarios
Pet Identification & Continuous Health Tracking
For pets, the tag serves as a permanent ID (replacing lost collars/tags) and monitors body temperature. This helps identify health issues early, such as post-surgery recovery or infection.
Streamlined Veterinary Clinic Management
Veterinarians can quickly scan tags to access animal health records and real-time temperature data. This reduces administrative time, improves diagnosis accuracy, and enhances patient care efficiency.
Livestock Herd Monitoring & Disease Prevention
For livestock (cattle, sheep, pigs), the tag enables herd management by tracking individual animals and monitoring temperature for disease signs (e.g., foot-and-mouth disease, fever). Early detection reduces illness spread and economic losses.
Installation & Usage Guide
Professional Implantation Process
The tag is implanted subcutaneously by a licensed veterinarian using a sterile syringe. The procedure takes <1 minute and requires minimal recovery time. Implantation sites (shoulder blades for pets, ear base for livestock) are chosen for comfort and easy scanning.
How to Read Temperature Data & UID with Compatible Readers
Use an ISO 11784/11785 compliant RFID reader with temperature sensing capability. Hold the reader within 10-15 cm of the tag to activate it. The reader displays the unique UID and current temperature; data can be stored or transferred to a computer for record-keeping.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the temperature sensing tag safe for animals?
Yes. The tag uses medical-grade bioglass (biocompatible, non-toxic). Implantation is performed by professionals, and the tag does not cause irritation or harm.
How long does the tag last?
The tag has an operational lifespan of up to 20 years. Passive RFID technology requires no batteries, so it functions as long as exposed to compatible reader signals.
What temperature range can the tag detect?
The tag detects 35°C to 43°C, covering normal mammalian body temperatures (e.g., dogs: 38-39.2°C, cattle:38.5-39.5°C).
Can the tag be read across different regions?
Yes. ISO 11784/11785 compliance ensures compatibility with readers used globally (North America, Europe, Asia, etc.).
