Hi Kevin,
Here are a few recent references you might find helpful (particularly the
middle one):
Kallansrud, G., and B. Ward. "A comparison of measured and calculated single-
and double-stranded oligodeoxynucleotide extinction coefficients." Anal Biochem
236.1 (1996): 134-138.
SantaLucia, J., Jr., H. T. Allawi, and P. A. Seneviratne. "Improved nearest-
neighbor parameters for predicting DNA duplex stability." Biochemistry 35
(1996): 3555-3562.
Sugimoto, N., et al. "RNA/DNA hybrid duplexes with identical nearest-neighbor
base-pairs have identical stability." FEBS Lett 354.1 (1994): 74-78.
Good luck,
