A method is described for the molecular weight distribution of DNA which is determined from sedimentation-velocity analysis. Knowing the distribution of sedimentation coefficients for a single DNA concentration it is possible to extrapolate such a distribution to infinite dilution of the solute in a simple way. Two versions (using two or three terms of a series) of extrapolating equations are considered and discussed in detail. The sedimentation coefficients distribution calculated from these equations differs only insignificantly with that obtained in a conventional way.
