That is incorrect.
I hate to get involved in this discussion again, but this has been bugging me for a while.
Going to a vintage photography expert such as Paul Messier, was the correct move. You've mentioned your fears that the item will be damaged or destroyed by forensic testing. Mr. Messier is an avid 19th century albumen collector (as you have alluded to). Why would he offer tests of 19th century albumens that would be damaging or destructive? Did he tell you that these tests could result in damage?
