Original Note:
The half life of DNA in preserved dead tissue or bone has been estimated at between about 350 and 500 years in perfect preservation conditions. However, inside a living body, biological processes break down the DNA and RNA much faster. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3497090/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27317895/ https://academic.oup.com/dnaresearch/article/16/1/45/364974
