Physiochemical properties of DNA-BPN.

	Hydrodynamic Diameter ± SEM (nm)^a		ζ-potential ± SEM (mV)^b	PDI^a
	Number mean	z-average	ζ-potential ± SEM (mV)^b	PDI^a

DNA-BPN	56 ± 2	106 ± 1	1.5 ± 0.3	0.18

DNA-BPN in plasma ^c	65 ± 7	130 ± 2	−1.8 ± 0.8	0.25

Size and PDI were measured by DLS in 10 mM NaCl at pH 7.0 and data are presented as the average of at least 3 measurements ± standard error of the mean (SEM).

ζ-potential was similarly measured by laser Doppler anemometry and data are presented as the average of at least 3 measurements ± SEM.

Physicochemical characteristics were measured following 5 min incubation in PHP at 37°C.
