## Abstract Amyloid fibrils, which are polymeric assemblies of protein molecules, have been intensively studied on a structural level, yet due to complications such as the disorder within the molecules, several aspects of their structure remain mysterious. Similarly, the kinetics of assembly are no

A major task in this work is to study the mechanisms of orientation of DNA fragments in dilute solution in presence of an electric field. The DNA fragments are modeled as charged and polarizable bent rods. Considering the participation of electrophoresis and electric moments in the orientation of pa
The electric birefringence of collagen solutions has been measured over a wide range of field strength with the pulse technique. The soluble collagen was from rat tail tendon. The solvent used was dilute acetic acid. Very pronounced saturation of the electric birefringence was observed, permitting c
## Reversing -pulse electric birefringence (RPEB) of a nearly monodisperse iron(III) hydroxide oxide sample in the β-form (β-FeOOH) was measured at 25 • C and at a wavelength of 633 nm in aqueous media in the presence of NaCl. The concentrations of β-FeOOH and added NaCl varied between 0.00111 and
## Abstract The optical birefringence induced in DNA solutions by both oscillating hydrodynamic fields (flow birefringence) and oscillating electric fields (Kerr effect) is measured over a wide frequency range. The observed frequency response of the birefrigence is compared with theories for rigid
