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 comet assay is a widely used test for the detection of DNA damage and repair activity.
However, there are interlaboratory differences in reported levels of baseline and induced …

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 …

The comet assay (single cell gel electrophoresis) is the most common method for measuring
DNA damage in eukaryotic cells or disaggregated tissues. The assay depends on the …

The field of free radicals and antioxidants, or 'redox biology', is fundamental to aerobic life.
Aerobes constantly make reactive species, but modulate their actions by synthesizing …

Large plastic litters degrade in the environment to micro-and nanoplastics, which may then
enter the food chain and lead to human exposure by ingestion. The present study explored …

Generation of oxidatively damaged DNA by particulate matter (PM) is hypothesized to occur
via production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inflammation. We investigated this …

Background Single cell gel electrophoresis, or the comet assay, was devised as a sensitive
method for detecting DNA strand breaks, at the level of individual cells. A simple …

The comet assay is a well-accepted biomonitoring tool to examine the effect of dietary,
lifestyle, environmental and occupational exposure on levels of DNA damage in human …

Abstract Purpose Wild blueberries (WB)(Vaccinium angustifolium) are rich sources of
polyphenols, such as flavonols, phenolic acids and anthocyanins (ACNs), reported to …
