We're very glad it was useful to you, and thank you for letting us know! You may also find some useful information on our website here: bento.bio/protocol/dna-barcoding/ , or check out our X feed @thebentolab for more content (some is plant-orientated and might be of interest).

Hi John! Wow, that's a really interesting question. To be honest, we are not really sure, but we are very bullish on the potential of biotechnology. That's why we're so excited about making biotech more accessible :) (but we're starting with comparatively simple DNA analysis. Crawl before you walk, etc.) It looks like there are people who are working on e.g. a peanut allergy gene therapy though: news.weill.cornell.edu/news/2016/06/new-gene-therapy-protects-against-peanut-allergy Our guess is that it is a question of when, rather than if. (but we're not making predictions on the when ;) )

@@BentoLab That's an awesome article! Thanks for sharing!
