Fig. 8

a DNA suspension in water at several concentrations, λ-DNA (48,502 bp) visualised using DNA intercalator (SYBR gold). These samples were observed in a sample cell made of two coverslips with an 85-μm-thick spacer. The experiments were performed at room temperature (297 ± 0.5 K). Scale bar = 10 μm. b Number of DNA molecules per unit area as a function of DNA concentration observed in DNA suspensions in water. Error bars are the standard deviation of at least 10 images. The solid line is a linear fit of the data. c Upper PEG-rich phase prepared at total composition: DEX 6 wt.% and PEG 2.6 wt.% + λ-DNA (48,502 bp) 29 ng/µL. Scale bar = 10 μm.
