2021, Forensic Science InternationalCitation Excerpt :DNA degradation was commonly found in postmortem blood samples. However, DNA was shown to be stable in the postmortem period up to 68 h after death [18,19]. The storage times and blood conditions seemed to affect the DNA yield but did not significantly impact the DNA integrity and methylation profile [20,21].
