We have made our DNA tie bar so it actually looks like DNA with the characteristic minor and major grooves. Really, really nerdy but also highly fashionable. Chemistry is awesome!
Note: The plated variants are made of brass electroplated with 0.25 microns. It is an economical alternative to solid gold for occasional wear. For tie clips, you should be fine though 🙂
Brass can react with your skin leaving a non-harmful greenish tinge with wear over time.
Dimensions: 4 cm x 1 cm x 0.6 cm
Molecular Weight: approx. 7’150 g/mol
Any biochemistry, chemistry, and science nerd will love this DNA tie clip!
About DNA
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a long polymer made from repeating units called nucleotides. A DNA molecule carries the genetic instructions used in the growth, development, functioning, and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses. DNA and RNA are nucleic acids; alongside proteins, lipids, and complex carbohydrates (polysaccharides), they are one of the four major types of macromolecules that are essential for all known forms of life. Most DNA molecules consist of two biopolymer strands coiled around each other to form a double helix. Its structure is dynamic along its length, being capable of coiling into tight loops and other shapes. Read more about DNA here.
