Applied DNA Sciences will introduce ‘GeoTyping’ Beta program, helping brands and retailers in identifying country-of-origin in cases of cotton substitution. This is an expansion of Applied DNA’s SigNature T cotton traceability system, enabling the identification of the origin for cotton that may be replaced for the cotton specified on labels.
The GeoTyping program will use a known library of biomarkers that designate DNA fingerprint of the cotton cultivar, including genus, species and one of 70 different geographic-cultivar-dependent genotypes.
