title: The buoyant density of three double-stranded RNAs in cesium sulfate.
abstract: The buoyant densities in Cs2SO4 of the double-stranded RNA from the bacteriophage phi 6 and the virus-like particles of Helminthosporium maydis and Penicillium chrysogenum were determined by a Taylor series expansion and by the position and slope of the gradient relative to the isopycnic position (hinge point method). Buoyant densities for the three types of double-stranded RNA calculated by the two methods were, respectively, 1.6089 and 1.6083, 1.6065 and 1.6059 and 1.6057 and 1.6050.
