The sedimentation coefficient of T2 phage DNA has been studied by zone centrifugation in sector‐shaped preparative centrifuge tubes over a concentration range of 0.02–2.0 μg./ml. DNA. These results have been compared to a similar study in the analytical centrifuge of T4 DNA over the range of 0.50–5.75 μg./ml. DNA. A value for the sedimentation coefficient of 60.7 ± 1.8 S. was obtained by the first method and a value of 61.3 ± 1.5 S. by the second.
