In the past two decades, experiments addressing the transport of single molecules, especially DNA, has attracted great attention. This technology is considered promising for the next generation of rapid in cheap DNA sequencing methods. In this theses, physical models and computer simulation methods for the simulation of DNA transport through these so-called nanopores are investigated. Modelling techniques with different result ions are compared and evaluated with special focus on their predictions regarding the current modulation caused by DNA molecules that are transported through these pores.
