Micronuclei (MN) are small, extranuclear bodies that arise in dividing cells from acentric
chromosome/chromatid fragments or whole chromosomes/chromatids lagging behind in …

Micronuclei research has regained its popularity due to the realization that genome chaos, a
rapid and massive genome re-organization under stress, represents a major common …

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 …
