While many look to a future when point-of-contact DNA analysis is possible, the capacity to use DNA barcoding to identify any specimen in a few hours is already a reality. Species identification of endangered wildlife, quarantine pests, and disease vectors are just a few areas in which DNA barcoding is enabling researchers, enforcement agents, and consumers to make informed decisions in much shorter time frames.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
