The readability of the transponder of each piglet has been detected by static and dynamic readings, in vivo and post mortem and was 100%. In the slaughtering chain, from each piglet, slaughtered at 29-35 days of age and at an average weight of 8902±1944 g, a second auricle sample has been kept for DNA analysis. The matching between the two samples of each piglet has been investigated by a genetic test, deploying n. 6 microsatellites ascribed in the FAO -ISAG panel for swine species. The DNA analysis of each electronically identified piglet confirmed the correspondence between the in vivo and post mortem samples.
