Movianto has teamed up with fellow Germany-based identif GmbH to find a method for adopting the DNA coding method to make pharmaceutical products secure. For the time being, the cost of such an anticounterfeiting mechanism would mean it could only be applied to the more expensive branded drugs. No details of the device's cost have been given, but it seems likely that the same problem for the adoption of such a powerful security tool as with radio-frequency identification (RFID) will come into play (Marketletters passim).
