"Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. has a seasoned management and marketing team. The commercial application is ready to launch and the cost is economical. In my opinion, our products are the best choice for businesses to protect their rights and to promote brand status," said Dr. Sheu, lead scientist at Biowell Technology Inc. "We also have a number of new products on the horizon, including products to secure passports and student visas and various applications for the nuclear power plant industry. Additionally we are working on edible anti-counterfeit coated materials and sprays to be used in medicines and high-priced food products."

Every plant and animal has a different DNA code. The key to this exclusive biotechnology is the ability to embed or combine scientifically selected and processed DNA to various materials such as labels, ink, paint, or microchips. In doing this, genuine products can be distinguished from counterfeits by comparing the characteristics of the attached DNA. By manipulating specific DNA from a plant or animal, Biowell is able to create a unique string of DNA codes that become traceable markings for any product.
