The potentiometric titration curves of carboxymethylcellulose, which has a relatively stiff backbone, and also of poly(D-glutamic acid) in the helical region are compared with the theoretical curves calculated assuming that the polyions are rods and have smeared charges on their surfaces. For carbox

## Abstract An approximate analytic expression for the translational friction coefficient of a toroid modeled as a continuous shell of frictional elements is derived using the Kirkwood approximation. The accuracy of this expression was determined by comparing the friction coefficients predicted by
## Abstract In addition to their chemical properties and topographical features, the mechanical properties of gels have been recently demonstrated to play an important role in various cellular processes, which include cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation. In this work, multilayer fil
## Abstract In difference to compact objects of a similar size, toroidal structures have some distinguishing properties that originate from their open inner cavity and closed circuit. Here, a general facile methodology is developed to prepare composite rings with varied compositions on a large scal
## Abstract A variety of solution conditions are known to induce collapse of linear DNA into a compact configuration without dramatic change of local structure. When visualized, these compact forms frequently have a toroidal appearance. We ask whether the molecular basis of the toroidal shape can b
