The usual procedure for purification of folded origamis uses agarose gel electrophoresis. Thereby the main product is separated from single staples and some misfolded structures, e.g. stably linked dimers. While electrophoresis is a helpful tool for analysis of the folding products, for preparative means it has the disadvantages of low yields (estimated to be roughly 10% of the loaded structure) and, more importantly, the samples are contaminated with ethidium bromide. We investigated our origami with gel electrophoresis and found only one weak band in addition to the correctly folded structure. With such few misfolding events, the aim of purification was only to remove unused staples. This could be reached by using size exclusion filters with 100kDa molecular weight cutoff. This new procedure saves time (ca. 1/2 hour as compared to several hours), is less expensive than resolubilization out of agarose gels, loss of product is significantly reduced, and the origamis are not contaminated with intercalators. <br>

For measuring the distance the MATLAB software was modified. After picking the spots in each picture they were aligned and for each spot the intensity was fitted with gaussian curve. Afterwards the distance  was calculated between the peaks of two matching spots.
