• UV absorbance of the commercial calf thymus DNA in a buffer gave an absorption ratio (A260/A280) of about 1.9:1, indicating that the DNA was sufficiently free from protein. The concentration of DNA in nucleobases was determined using molar extinction coefficient of 6600 M−1cm−1 at λmax 260 nm. All the DNA experiments were carried out in a Tris HCl buffer at pH 7.2 which was prepared in Mili-Q triply deionized water. Absorption spectral titration of complex was recorded in the range of 200–600 nm keeping the complex concentration constant (25 µM) and varying the CT-DNA concentrations from 0–120 µM in 50 mM Tris HCl buffer at pH 7.2. To nullify the absorbance changes because of the DNA, an equal volume of DNA was added to both the reference cell and the sample cells.

• EtBr displacement assay was carried out using DNA – Ethidium bromide complexes including 20µM EtBr and 100 µM of CT-DNA concentrations in 50 mM Tris HCl buffer (pH 7.2). The DNA-EtBr complex was excited at 510nm and the subsequent emission maxima was observed at 610nm. The addition of the complex from the concentration 10–100 µM was carried out. The inner filter effect in the case of DNA-EtBr has been considered as it was carried out in (Tris HCl) buffered solutions using low volume cuvettes during analysis. Usually DNA-EtBr is excited above 520nm for the quenching studies, we have selected a comparatively short wavelength as 510nm for the excitation.
