| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is (1) construction of a perfectly even structure using biomolecules of DNA strands, that allow us to provide a rigorous building block, and (2) measurement of dynamic viscoelasticity for the DNA-network gel made from the DNA strands. In this study, a tetrapod-like DNA structure was designed as a building block, and then the thin film of the DNA-network gel was prepared with the tetrapod-like DNA on a plate of Quartz-crystal microbalance, which can be used for dynamic viscoelasticity measurement. As a result, the DNA-network gel indicates the similar viscoelasticity as that of PDMS.
