Organic data memory using the DNA approach

A study on method of encoding meaningful information as DNA sequences was presented. It was found that the embedded information survived its rough handling in in the mail, providing that a DNA strand can be as dependable as a piece of paper in terms of information storage. The developments done in finding a super-dependable storage medium to ensure adequate protection for the encoded DNA strands were discussed. Recent advances in genetic engineering, that have allowed the introduction of foreign DNA molecules into the living cells of bacteria, humans, and other organisms were also presented.
