Supply chain security firm Applied DNA Sciences has signed a memorandum of understanding with pharmaceutical capsule and tablet manufacturer ACG for enhanced traceability and authentication of ACG’s capsule products.

The MoU, which is expected to be followed by a definitive agreement, will see Bengaluru-based ACG use APDN’s SigNature molecular tagging and authentication technologies to develop molecularly tagged empty hard-shell capsules to improve the product’s traceability for ACG’s pharma and nutraceutical customers.
