Feasibility of using microbeads with holographic barcodes to track DNA specimens in the clinical molecular laboratory

We demonstrate the feasibility of using glass microbeads with a holographic barcode identifier to track DNA specimens in the molecular pathology laboratory. These beads can be added to peripheral blood specimens and are carried through automated DNA extraction protocols that use magnetic glass parti...
