Traceability and origin verfication

Especially in this time with sourcing in new countries with new suppliers of raw materials, traceability and origin verification is so important and so challenging. Simply testing a product is not enough, and not possible in this complex world. New ideas, tools, and modules are necessary to ensure quality and safety. A synthetic, scalable microbial spore system that identifies object provenances could be part of a solution. 

Determining where an object has been is a fundamental challenge for human health, commerce, and food safety. Location-specific microbes in principle offer a cheap and sensitive way to determine object provenance.
