Figure 3.12 Using 2 MDa dextran as the matrix polymer, normalized values of (O) solution fluidity self-diffusion coefficients Ds/Dq of (0) a 48.5 kbp dsDNA, (x) a 4.7 kbp dsDNA fragment, and ( ) the dextran itself, all to be compared with ( ) p/pq of the 48.5 kbp dsDNA fragment with an applied field of 1 V/cm. Original measurements by Nkodo and Tinland(28).
