Procedure for the identification and monitoring of animals through the use of electronic identification devices (transponders). It comprises the steps of inserting the transponder inside the peritoneal cavity of the animal; identifying and collecting information on the animal by means of sensors; and, once the animal has been slaughtered, recovering the transponder through automated processes in the slaughtering lines of the slaughterhouses. The insertion of the transponder is achieved by means of an applicator that comprises a main hallow tubular body with an open end; a charge carrier adjusted for longitudinal displacement inside the hollow tubular body; a charge transfer array permanently coupled to one end of the charge carrier and consisting of a hollow needle which has in its interior a capsule that stores a transponder; and a rod adjusted for displacement inside the charge carrier and the needle in order to push the capsule towards the exterior of the applicator. The transponder is inserted into a capsule equipped with a sheath or protective covering of shockproof, biocompatible plastic material, which also comprises a ferrous mass capable of being detected and displaced by the forces of an external magnetic field. |
