If we had kept the mode number dependence of the mobility, then we would have had to deal with the integral equation presented However, the corrections to the exponent of the structure factor as found with the effective friction coefficient, Eq. (2.18), are comparable in magnitude to the small deviations arising from other approximations introduced in the main text and are not further analyzed here.

Moreover, if one of the two degrees of freedom of a polymer in three-dimensional space is projected out by observing only a two-dimensional image of the contour, the corresponding variables are no longer independent [J. Wilhelm (private communication)]. The interpretation of microrheological data is complicated by the fact that the method is neither microscopic nor macroscopic in a strict sense.
