Raptis Rare Books selects SelectaDNA for authentication of rare books.
Palm Beach, FL, October 14, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Raptis Rare Books, one of the world’s leading antiquarian and rare book galleries, became the first in its industry in the United States to use synthetic DNA for authentication and inventory management.
The synthetic DNA technology (Asset Marking product), from SelectaDNA, provides clients of Raptis Rare Books with enhanced assurance of authentication of some of the globe’s most prized and valuable literary works, which are valued up to, and above, $500,000.
“Raptis Rare Books takes extraordinary measures to ensure authenticity of its collection of literary treasures,” said Matthew Raptis, owner and founder of Raptis Rare Books located at the famed shopping destination on Worth Avenue, Palm Beach, Fla. “The use of SelectaDNA is an excellent complement to our rigorous authentication protocols, which provides our clients with added confidence in purchasing these rare literary gems.”
“We’re very pleased to have Raptis Rare Books utilize the synthetic DNA technology from SelectaDNA,” said Henrik Olsen, CEO of CSI Protect, the exclusive distributor of SelectaDNA technology in North America. “This proven technology is used by many museums and libraries in many countries, as well as by a wide and diverse spectrum of industries.”
A brief sampling of other industries that utilize and benefit from SelectaDNAs technology offerings include: construction, gun stores, banks, check cashing stores, convenience stores, pharmacies, collectibles and memorabilia, retail, transportation, hospitals, education, warehouses, cannabis and casinos.
SelectaDNA technology has been successfully used for more than a decade in 47 countries across the continents of Europe, Asia, Africa, South America and Australia. It is now available and being deployed in the United States.
Each unit of the synthetic DNA Asset Marking technology has a universally unique DNA code, and microdots, which provides irrefutable proof of an item and its legal, rightful owner. This technology provides clients of Raptis Rare Books the ability to irrefutably identify and recover lost or stolen rare books. SelectaDNAs international registry database allows police, who use a specific wavelength ultraviolet light, to easily identify owners of items marked with the synthetic DNA. Microdots are a secondary method of identify ownership identified via use of a microscope.
