Single Shot Tag Injector

The single shot injector is designed as an inexpensive means of implanting small numbers of coded wire tags (CWTs) for trials of the system and for limited-scale experiments involving only tens or hundreds of animals. For larger-scale projects involving thousands of animals the Handheld Multishot Injector or MKIV injector will be more suitable. Following are brief discussions of issues relevant to use of pre-cut tags and a single-shot injector.
