Abstract:
Tracking objects or finding their source can be challenging and yet can be useful in scenarios such as a forensic scene or food-borne illness. We created synthetic microbes barcoded genetically that can be used to find the path or source of objects. The barcodes sustain disturbances and can be detected rapidly with our CRISPR/Cas system with high specificity and sensitivity. The platform is affordable and portable and thus suitable for in-lab and on-site investigations.
