The interaction between DNA and alkyltrimethylammonium bromides of different chain lengths is studied, both on a macroscopic and on a single-molecule level. The phase maps for aqueous DNA—surfactant systems as well as some interesting salt effects are presented. Some preliminary results on the structure of DNA—surfactant complexes are also given. Studies involving DNA and surfactant mixtures are also conducted.
