Bacterial computing, conceptual artwork. Escherichia coli bacterium with binary code (zeros and ones) and hands at a keyboard. This image represents the use of bacteria for computing. E. coli has been investigated as a medium for storing and encrypting data in bacterial DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). Bacterial biostorage systems could hold vast amounts of data, and the concept could also be used to create biological barcodes.
