Figure 8. — Determination of the persistence length of ssRNA at varying [Mg²⁺]. Estimators of obtained experimentally were compared with the expected profiles for different values of P (0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 nm from top to bottom) using Equation 7 and Equation 10. Red (green) points are the experimental estimators at a pulling rate of 12.5 (1.8) pN/s. Blue (magenta) points are the experimental estimators of at a pulling rate of 12.5 (1.8) pN/s. Light blue lines are the profiles for values of m not matched, and black lines are the experimental estimators of B_eff(f) that match the experiments. Application of the method for experiments done at 0.01 mM [Mg²⁺] (A), 0.1 mM [Mg²⁺] (B), 0.5 mM [Mg²⁺] (C), 1 mM [Mg²⁺] (D), 4 mM [Mg²⁺] (E) and 10 mM [Mg²⁺] (F).
