===Way to Anneal DNA ===
#Irradiate visible-light to solutions A, B and A+B with Visible-light irradiation equipment(Epi-Green Slim pro S) to stabilize trans-azobanzen.
#Soaked solutions A, B, and A+B in a hot water of 100 digrees for 10 minute.
#Left these solutions A, B, and A+B for 50 minute, irradiating them visible-light.
#Put solutions into darkroom for 60 minute to cool down for stabilizing DNA duplex
 
 
===Irradiate UV-light to DNA duplex and measures absorbance===
#Irradiated UV-light(365nm) to a solution A+B for 1, 5, 30 minute.
#Measured absorbance of each DNA solutions(1~6) near 260nm wavelength of light. The DNA solutions we measured was as follows(table below).
