The concentration is determined according to the absorbance values at 260.0 nm by using DNA =
6600 M cm-1. (RS1) Single stranded fish sperm DNA (ssDNA) is obtained by
incubating fish sperm DNA in boiling water bath for 10 min and cooling in ice water immediately. The images were obtained by using a portable 253 nm UV lamp light source excitating the solution dipped on the silica surface, and the images of the aqueous solutions were recorded by a Nikon coolpix-4500 digital camera.
