In any case, animal welfare advisory councils clearly emphasize that the time from incapacitation to start of exsanguination should be prompt; recommending a time under 15 seconds.

(including the "aperiodicity" of the molecule), properties which Muller specified and refined additionally in his 1929 article "The Gene As The Basis of Life" and during the 1930s. Moreover, H. J. Muller himself wrote in a 1960 letter to a journalist regarding "What Is Life?" that whatever the book got right about the "hereditary molecule" had already
