I would expect to get good results. I have amplified dna from 2700 year old mummies ,2000 year old buried bone and also paper dried whole blood 25 years old so I think that DNA is very stable and short fragments can usually be amplified from most samples

Ahmed AbdulJabbar Suleiman

The DNA is stable so you can use blood to identify SNP

Dharmesh Chandra Sharma

Yes, DNA is stable, You can use blood sample from cadaver for the study of SNP or any other genetic study
