The use of artificially-generated nucleic acid coded markers to monitor nucleic acid amplification and sequencing reactions designed to detect or analyze biological samples. The markers generally include, along with a unique sequence preferably including coded section designed to represent one or more factors of interest, primer annealing sequences so that the marker may be amplified and sequenced in the same process and using the same amplification and sequencing primers as for the sample target. The invention also relates to the marker itself, and other uses, such as identifying the origin of various materials or products.
