Conductivity of single-stranded and double-stranded deoxyribose nucleic acid under ambient conditions: The dominance of water.
Appl. Phys. Lett. 88:102102 (2006)

DOI
We investigate the conductivity of single-stranded and double-stranded herring deoxyribose nucleic acid(DNA) in buffer solution spotted and dried on Aunanocontacts. We find an exponential increase of the conductivity with increasing humidity that is identical for single- and double-stranded DNA within the measurement accuracy. While the small conductivity of dry DNA is comparable to that of a large band-gap semiconductor, we attribute the increase at high humidity levels to water molecules accumulated at the phosphate backbone. For high humidities we observe s-shaped current-voltage characteristics that can be well explained by the dissociation of water attached to the DNA molecules.
