Read a very interesting forensic science article published online by Economist.com which documented the issues surrounding the mass storage of DNA samples.
The article notes that the traditional way of keeping samples i.e. refrigeration is less than perfect given that power supplies can be interrupted and thermostats can be mis-set. However, it would seem a more satisfactory solution is as hand, a solution that enables DNA samples to be kept at room temperature.
