How do the BioThermo microchips work with the EquiTrace app

EquiTrace is the only app that connects to the new temperature-sensing horse microchips launched by Merck Animal Health.

  • EquiTrace is the only app that connects to the new temperature-sensing horse microchips launched by Merck Animal Health.  
  • Using a scanner, you can now take a horse's temperature by scanning the microchip.  
  • Connect your scanner to EquiTrace and scan each horse. See how to connect your scanner HERE 
  • EquiTrace records each horse's temperature on the horse's page.  
  • You get a quick graph of all previous temperatures.  
  • EquiTrace will show you spikes and changes in the temperature.  
  • You will know if your horse is sick from this vital reading. 
  • Compared to rectal temperature monitoring, you can read temperatures within seconds allowing you to monitor temperatures quicker and more frequently.  
  • Once a temperature scan is recorded on EquiTrace with the Bio-Thermo microchips, EquiTrace will graph all temperatures to show trends within a horses baseline temperatures that are easy to interpret.
