Research Abstract |
In this research, we developed a measurement method for electrokinetic phenomena and a numerical model for biomacromolecules to clarify the detailed dynamics of biomacromolecules flowing near solid-liquid interfaces. The dynamics including electro osmosis flow and electrophoresis in micro- and nano- channels were investigated using the developed methods. The result obtained here suggested that the electrokinetic phenomena could be used for the development of a novel single molecule analysis to investigate properties of biomacromolecules.
