Microscopic barcodes implanted on mice embryos. . . . humans are next.

Scientists from Spain’s Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), along with colleagues from the Spanish National Research Council, have successfully developed an identification system in which mouse embryos and oocytes (egg cells) are physically tagged with microscopic silicon bar code labels.

They expect to try it out on human embryos and oocytes soon.

represents a first step towards designing a direct labeling system of oocytes and embryos.

forget the verichip implant, how about a microscopic barcode implant.

It sounds ominous but when I went to your source and looked at the context of the usage it makes sense as long as this process is restricted to that intended usage. The encoding is shed and apparently we won't end up with bar coded babies through this process. They are even doing further research to ensure that the encoding is shed early in the embryo's development.

Why would they even bother with this tech if they had no intention to use it.?
