ABSTRACT:
Implants may be placed in animals in the field with a system including an implanter and cartridge-like container for a plurality of implants. The cartridge is transparent and encloses a plurality of enlongated implants arranged side-to-side, transverse to the central axis of the cartridge. The implants may be moved manually along the central axis of the cartridge toward one end and stopped in alignment parallel with the end of the cartridge and with one implant aligned with a pair of openings in the cartridge, one at each end of the implant. The implanter carries a sharpened tubular needle and a plunger, slidable along an axis aligned with the central axis of the tubular needle. The implanter has an opening into which the cartridge may be fitted and retained. The implanter and cartridge have interfitting surfaces to position the cartridge with its pair of openings lying upon the central axis of the hollow needle and to retain the cartridge in the implanter so that the plunger may be passed repeatedly through the pair of openings in the cartridge and move the implants, one after the other, through the sharpened tubular needle into the animals. The implants are protected from contamination until implantation.
