"DNA Interactions with Polymers and Surfactants" provides a broad overview of the interaction of DNA with cosolutes in both bulk solution and at interfaces. It provides the basis for understanding the factors leading to complexation between DNA and different cosolutes as well as DNA adsorption at different interfaces, and covers DNA-cosolute interactions including simple metal ions, polyelectrolytes, spermine, spermidine, surfactants and lipids, and proteins.
Theoretical information such as important correlations forces, are addressed, as well has more practical aspects, such as the biological significance of the interactions such as with chromatin and transfection.
