O.D.260 Units of Nucleic Acid to Concentration
How many O.D.260 units were measured? 

What type of nucleic acid was measured?
                                DNA
Single-Stranded DNA
RNA
Single-Stranded Oligonucleotides

 

The solution measured contains   µg/ml of nucleic Acid.

OD260 x conversion factor  = µg/ml of nucleic acid,

1 OD260 Unit = 50µg/ml for double-stranded DNA,
1 OD260 Unit = 40µg/ml for single-stranded RNA,
1 OD260 Unit = 35µg/ml for single-stranded DNA,
1 OD260 Unit = 20µg/ml for single-stranded oligonucleotides.
