Applied DNA Sciences (NASDAQ:APDN) has announced it has signed a five-year agreement with Montblanc-Simplo GTMBH to provide its SigNature DNA for Montblanc clients.
As quoted in the press release:
This Agreement culminates a rigorous 18-month product development and qualification program between Applied DNA and Montblanc for SigNature DNA with Beacon®in a range of specialist inks for use in the high-end range of Montblanc writing instruments. The SigNature DNA molecular tag provides the forensic evidence for traceability; Beacon is a covert screening feature of the SigNature DNA molecular tag, fluorescing only with complementary decryptant.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Applied DNA will supply a minimum number of its Signature DNA marks combined with Beacon for use by Montblanc clients on a 2-year exclusive basis.
Dr. James Hayward, president and CEO of Applied DNA, said, “We had a shared vision with Montblanc that our SigNature DNA with Beacon could be supplied to Montblanc clients who may wish to forensically prove a document had been signed using a personally unique molecular tag. We are pleased to announce this has been achieved and will soon be made available by Montblanc, initially to an exclusive list of their clients.”
