I'm looking for a reference to get a better idea of the optimal storage 
conditions for tissues and samples in order to preserve DNA and/or RNA for 
performing molecular biology.  This is a recurring question, and i have relative 
ideas about lengths of time and traditional storage requirements, but I have been 
unable to find direct references for this.  Thanks
