## Abstract The chain stiffness of linear native DNA is represented by a generalized bead and spring model recently proposed. It incorporates molecular rigidity by means of springs between beads, which are second neighbors along the contour of the chain. These springs are equivalent to elastic forc

A previously derived general equation, correlating the intrinsic viscosity of a polymer with -~'n, ~w and 2~,, is tested with experimental data. Its application for the calculation of average molecular weights is discussed. Good results have been obtained for the calculation of 2f/" z using experime
Al~tract--An empirical equation relating the intrinsic viscosity of a polymer and its number-, weight-and z-average molecular weights has been used to evaluate the K and a constants of the Mark-Houwink-Sakurada relationship, in cases where data either from monodisperse samples or from samples with k
