Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. Introduces Advanced DNA-tagged Anti-counterfeit Label Technology to North America and Europe.Business Editors LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 5, 2003 Instant detection allows real-time product authentication Applied DNA DNA: see nucleic acid. DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid One of two types of nucleic acid (the other is RNA); a complex organic compound found in all living cells and many viruses. It is the chemical substance of genes. Sciences, Inc. (OTCBB OTCBB See OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB). :APDN), a provider of proprietary DNA-embedded biotechnology solutions that protect corporate and intellectual property from counterfeiting and fraud, today announced the introduction of the first DNA-tagged label security system in the Northern American and European markets. With applications for a wide range of consumer and industrial products, DNA-tagged label technology promises to be an effective deterrent to the ever-increasing number of sophisticated worldwide counterfeiters. Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (ADNAS) is the exclusive Northern American and European licensee and partner of Biowell Technology, Inc. This patented biotechnology combines specially processed DNA with anti-counterfeit ink, which can be applied to paper, cloth or plastic labels, garment labels, printed onto logos or on any other surface. Labels are printed with proprietary ink containing a unique authentication DNA code for each manufacturer. The labels can then be easily tested for manufacturers' authenticity and traced to the authorized point of origin. In addition, these labels can be instantly identified as containing DNA-tagged label technology imprinting imprinting, acquisition of behavior in many animal species, in which, at a critical period early in life, the animals form strong and lasting attachments. Imprinting is important for normal social development. with a second level of a proprietary embedded DNA-instant authentication feature. Virtually any item that can be duplicated can be protected with the DNA label technology offering from ADNAS. DNA anti-counterfeit ink can be applied to labels, and printed onto logos or on any other surface which can then be easily and instantly tested for authenticity. A simple real-time field test can instantly authenticate the presence of the ADNAS's tag. Using a specifically coded and proprietary activation solution stored in a handy one-use swab, a simple wipe of the solution will induce a predetermined pre·de·ter·mine v. pre·de·ter·mined, pre·de·ter·min·ing, pre·de·ter·mines v.tr. 1. To determine, decide, or establish in advance: color change in the DNA tagged ink used to print the label. This proprietary biochemical reaction only occurs in the presence of the DNA tag, and cannot be replicated in a fake label product. For further verification, a piece of the label can also be sent to the lab for complete forensic DNA sequence DNA sequence Genetics The precise order of bases–A,T,G,C–in a segment of DNA, gene, chromosome, or an entire genome. See Base pair, Base sequence analysis, Chromosome, Gene, Genome. analysis. Other anti-counterfeit features are also added to labels to provide multiple levels of protection, including copy protected pantographs, tamper proof die-cuts, florescent flo·res·cence n.

[New Latin fl printing, and microprinting Microprinting is one of many anti-counterfeiting techniques used most often on currency and bank checks, as well as various other items of value. Microprinting involves printing very small text, usually too small to read with the naked eye, onto the note or item. . This cost-effective solution can be adapted to any company's current branding, product tracking, or anti-counterfeiting program. The demand for the proprietary, DNA ink-infused label technology transcends an expansive range of industries, including but not limited to textile, fashion, pharmaceuticals, art, memorabilia, supermarket, drug, and mass merchandised products. By using bio-engineered DNA as an invisible and highly specific identification tag An identification tag might be:

Private label market share in US supermarkets reached 20.7% in terms of units at the end of the third quarter, up from 20.6% a year ago, while private label dollar market share was 16.3%, up from 16.1%. Both figures are the highest on record for store brands. About Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (ADNAS) Applied DNA Sciences, Inc.
