Selective Modification of Chitosan to Enable the Formation of Chitosan-DNA Condensates by Electron Donator Stabilization

Figure 5

Mobility of DNA complexed in modified chitosan condensates. Frame (a) is pure chitosan, Frame (b) is methyl-modified chitosan, Frame (c) is alcohol-modified chitosan, Frame (d) is chlorine-modified chitosan, Frame (e) is cyclohexane-modified chitosan, Frame (f) is benzene-modified chitosan, Frame (g) is phthalate-modified chitosan. For all frames, Lane 1 is uncomplexed DNA; Lane 2 is a 0.1 N : P ratio. Lane 3, 1 N : P; Lane 4, 2 N : P; Lane 5, 5 N : P; Lane 6, 7 N : P.
