23. It is important to note that, in referring to stable hairpins, "stable" does not mean loop formation is itself thermodynamically favorable but that formation of stable loops is less destabilizing than formation of other loops.

48. The salt dependence for the C3 linkers was not conducted, as the salt dependence could be artificially higher due to the presence of an extra phosphate group in the hairpin with the addition of the C3 linker.
