There are several claims that "tapping the admiral" and other phrases derived from the preservation of Lord Nelson, but I have never seen a reliable source that says the phrases were used.

A guard was mounted on the deck, either out of respect of the admiral or to keep the sailors from trying to tap the keg, or both (depends on who's story you read). There is also a story that the body turned over one night in the barrel due to the formation of gas in the intestines, which were not well preserved, and that a rumor went around the ship that the admiral was alive inside the barrel. But the only reliable account of the whole thing we have is Beatty's book, which is worth reading:</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><a href="https://archive.org/details/authenticnarrati00beat/page/62" target="_blank">https://archive.org/details/authenticnarrati00beat/page/62</a></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)">Its a great story any way you look at it!<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><br clear="all"></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail-m_8765783042784167658gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><font size="2"><span style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">John E.

You can preserve things in almost any strong liquor. Historically, rum was often used and somewhat more famously, Admiral Lord Nelson was preserved in brandy after he was killed at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. I have used aguardiente for preserveration
several times in Latin America.</div>

Particularly for DNA samples, buy the purest, strongest alcohol you can. Everclear sold in the US is good. Depending on which state you buy it in, it may be as high as 190 proof (95%), 151 proof (75.5%), or 120 proof (670%). As far as I have been able to determine,
it does not have any additives to it (it is distilled from grain). Avoid anything with coloring in it and gin (which is loaded with botanical ingredients) if possible. If you can't get Everclear, get a grain-based vodka without any flavoring in it. If using
low proof (below 190) with a low ratio of fluid-to-tissue, I recommend changing for fresh liquor after 24 hr as it will be diluted by the water extracted from the tissues.</div>

to 95% EtOH when back in the lab after a few days and DNA extraction, PCR and sequencing worked fine. Absinthe arguably should be worse for the DNA than Everclear, but it worked.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

Downstream they'll be used for mtDNA (Sanger) and genomic (ddRAD) protocols. The issue is, I am currently in rural Saskatchewan and only have denatured EtOH (Fisherbrand Histoprep 95%) available to me. I understand that the additives in some denatured EtOH
