Nope. Never work. Too many things come into contact with other things and multiple dna would contaminate the original. Also, to charge 30 would put you in bankruptcy as the average cost of a DNA tracing is $350.00 (american dollars) However, you may be better investing your money into microchips that can be implanted into people (children/elderly) in case they get lost. (GPS tracker) lol. Sorry to burst your bubble. Keep on thinking though....ambitious thoughts are what makes the world advance. Take care. |

How are you intending marking the goods? Actual DNA not applicable to certain materials, I think a far better Idea would be using unique coded RFID tags, the police are set up to scan for RFID tags, and whilst they would scan for DNA in a murder assault case it would be far too expensive to do DNA tests on every item of stolen goods found. Good Luck anyway. |

it sounds a good idea..but how do you mark it with DNA that cant be washed off |

But DNA from everyone coming into contact with the item will also have their DNA all over it, so how could you prove something definetly belonged to one particular person. |

Do you know how much a DNA test costs. You'll only be able to mark very expensive items to make it viable. Tests are about £160 each then you have to get permission to process the evidence. In other words the police have to be involved. This could be a good starting point.

Too complicated and not worth the cost of DNA fingerprinting. Why not try marking their name (or their fingerprint) in something that can only be seen in UV light. You will find that any washing powder with a whitener (most of them), mixed with water till dissolved, then paint on with a small paint brush. Try it. Cheap (to you) - and only £25 per house! My advice is free (on this occasion). |
