Very much snake oil, and highly marked up as others have said.
If you insist on going down this route for whatever reason a (very slightly) cheaper alternative is: http://www.dnacapsule.com
The best long-term storage method is probably to just sequence it. Then you can recreate it whenever you need to.

Hello colleagues,please, does anyone have any experience with the commercial DNA capsule services, like DNAcapsule.com or securigene.com?Are their methods of DNA preservation sound? Isn't it just snake oil?I am very tempted to use them for DNA archiving because they don't require constant freezing, but I'm not sure whether the companies really provide what they say. Would I be able to find a difference if they sent me back a vial of salt water in iron case?I will be glad for any opinion.Best regards,Jiri Dluhos
