Using electric birefringence we have examined the rotational diffusion of five short DNA fragments (55 to 256 base pairs) both in polyacrylamide gels as a function of gel concentration and in solution. The length dependence of the measured rotational relaxation times in the gels is in good agreement

Swelling behavior of polyacrylamide (PAAm) and polyacrylamide-co-polyacrylic acid (PAAm-co-PAAc) gels was investigated in aqueous solutions of monodisperse PAAms with molecular weights ( M V w ) ranging from 1.5 1 10 3 to 5 1 10 6 g/mol. The volume of the gels decreases as the PAAm concentration in
Acrylamide and N,N-methylenebis(acry1amide) (AAm-Bis) copolymerization has been investigated in water at a monomer concentration of 1.8 w/v %. Conversion of monomer and pendant vinyl groups was measured as a function of the reaction time up to the onset of macrogelation. Experimental results indicat
