“…In general, the complexes are quite polydisperse, although relatively monodisperse complexes are found in some cases [8,10,12,14,17]. Most studies deal with synthetic flexible polymers (intrinsic persistence length l p int~1 nm), but a few studies deal with semi-flexible polymers such as polysaccharides [10, 14,16,21] (l p int~5 -10 nm) and with DNA [12,17], a polymer with a more rigid backbone (l p int = 50 nm).…”
