Abstract
The kinetics of the reaction of periodate oxidized oligonucleotides with polyacrylhydrazide gel was studied. The rate of the reaction is proportional to (see article), where M is the molecular weight of the oligonucleotide for the permeable gels. The rate of the reaction with given oligonucleotide decrease as the number of crosslinks in the gel matrix increase; a dramatic decrease of the rate occurs when oligonucleotides become too large to penetrate into the matrix. The rate of the reactions with short oligonucleotides does not depend upon the viscosity of the medium. ESR method revealed a considerable decrease of the rotational mobility of oligonucleotides captured by the gel matrix. It has been shown also that an increase of the number of cross-links leads to a decrease of the rotational mobility of the gel chains.
