Surely the source of the DNA and RNA would be relevant? I may be wrong here, 
but I though that these chemicals are recording media, and just to use any 
old source would be like putting any old disk into your floppy drive and 
expect it to load the computer program you happened to want at the time.

If this is correct, then I would assume that Odens either used rat sources or 
even DNA and RNA extracted from the same subjects whilst they were younger.
