According to Dr. Raymundo, the genes will be preserved for more than a year, or for as long as the alcohol keeps it, "alive". Genes or single strand of DNA could be used for the positive identification of a person like - a fingerprint and dental record - and could be used to link him to a crime or as cross-reference of paternal relationship with another person. so keep your genes safe and intact!
