Storage unit for at least one device for animal identification and/or animal tissue sampling, and corresponding identification or tissue sampling method

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The unit (20A) has a container (23) containing a specific agent designed to be applied to an element of identification and/or collecting device. The container is closed by closing unit configured to be removed or perforated. The closing unit is selected from a lid, a plug, and a portion of an element. The container has a shape adapted such that the element is partially in contact with the agent. The agent is selected from a disinfectant, a cicatrizing agent, a preserving agent, a desiccant, a medicine, a vaccine, a gel, a cream, fat, a liquid, a powder, a gas, and impregnated foam. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for a method for animal identification or collecting animal tissue, enabling identification of an animal by an animal identification and/or animal tissue collecting device. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Storage unit for an animal identification and/or animal tissue collecting device to i.e. mark the animal and/or collect animal tissue. Uses include but are not limited to bovine, ovine, pig, caprine, birds, fish or other animal species. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The design of the unit allows avoiding additional container for disinfectants while facilitating usage of the container conditioning the agent in a simple manner, without the need for transportation of heavy container from one place to another place. The design of the unit avoids wasting specific agent by adapting quantity of specific agent to multiple numbers of devices. The design of the unit optimizes quantity of product regarding storage of the agent. The application of the agent is carried out after a male part is positioned on a tool, thus carrying out handling process on the male part and installation on the tool before the application of the agent so as to avoid contamination of the male part or dispersion of the specific agent after its application. The agent is selected as an disinfecting agent or disinfectant agent or healing agent i.e. hydrogen peroxide, thus reducing risk of contamination of a wound formed in animal's skin, and hence improving cicatrisation process. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a perspective view of a storage unit. 20A : Storage unit 23 : Container 211, 221 : Male parts 221, 222 : Female parts.
