Press Release Body: Skyclad-Eye today announced the latest innovation in property protection, the DNA-based Property Security Products. This family of products is designed to increase the likelihood of recovering and verifying the proper ownership of valuables. This proprietary invisible ink embedded with specific sequenced DNA strands dramatically increases the odds that stolen property is returned to its proper owner.
Imagine, if marked possessions are lost or stolen then recovered, the items can be scanned under ordinary UV light to reveal the identifying marks and prove the proper ownership or legitimacy.
"Local law enforcement agencies are always interested in finding ways to help their citizens recover stolen property. In the past, they have recommended "etching" engravers. While effective, they would leave permanent, visible marks that many users were hesitant to use," said Tom Branson, Senior Vice President at Skyclad-Eye.
"Through exclusive DNA UV marking, the citizen can invisibly mark their valuables, increasing the probability of identifying the rightful owner of the valuables and increasing conviction rates. This permanent and non-damaging marking system can increase community buy-in to programs like Operation I.D."
This technically advanced system consists of patented ultra-violet ink embedded with specific sequenced DNA strands. Citizens mark items with a permanent ID and their fingerprint. The unique forensic fingerprint fluoresces under ultraviolet light that police use as standard, and is virtually impossible to completely remove. Even if the markings are discovered and scrubbed, traces of fluorescing DNA remain in crevices and uneven surfaces.
We welcome agency inquiries about enhancing community crime prevention initiatives.
