Systems and methods for identifying a products identity

Abstract

This disclosure relates to verifying a product's identity. In particular. this disclosure relates to a method for verifying a product's identity. The method comprises a labelling step that comprises generating a first oligonucleotide sequence and calculating a first hash value of the first oligonucleotide sequence. The first hash value is associated with the product. The method then comprises synthesising the first oligonucleotide sequence and adding the synthesised oligonucleotide sequence to the product. Then follows a testing step. which comprises sequencing a second oligonucleotide sequence from the product. calculating a second hash value of the sequenced oligonucleotide sequence. and comparing the second hash value to the first hash value associated with the product to verify the product's identity.
