The comet assay is widely used in human biomonitoring to measure DNA damage as a
marker of exposure to genotoxic agents or to investigate genoprotective effects. Studies …

The comet assay (single-cell gel electrophoresis) is a simple and sensitive method for
studying DNA damage and repair. In this microgel electrophoresis technique, a small …

The comet assay is a versatile method to detect nuclear DNA damage in individual
eukaryotic cells, from yeast to human. The types of damage detected encompass DNA …

The alkaline comet assay, or single cell gel electrophoresis, is one of the most popular
methods for assessing DNA damage in human population. One of the open issues …

The alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (comet) assay has become a widely used
method for the detection of DNA damage and repair in cells and tissues. Still, it has been …

The alkaline comet assay is an established, sensitive method extensively used in
biomonitoring studies. This method can be modified to measure a range of different types of …

The alkaline comet assay is now the method of choice for measuring different kinds of DNA
damage in cells. Several attempts have been made to identify and evaluate the critical …

The comet assay is widely used in studies on genotoxicity testing, human biomonitoring and
clinical studies. The simple version of the assay detects a mixture of DNA strand breaks and …

The comet assay is a simple technique for measurements of low levels of DNA damage and
repair in single cells. However, there is variation in background levels of DNA damage in …

The comet assay is a versatile method for measuring DNA strand breaks in individual cells. It
can also be applied to cells isolated from treated animals. In this review, we highlight …
