Is the Comet Assay a Sensitive Procedure for Detecting Genotoxicity? [PDF]
Journal of Nucleic Acids, 2010 Although the Comet assay, a procedure for quantitating DNA damage in mammalian cells, is considered sensitive, it has never been ascertained that its sensitivity is higher than the sensitivity of other genotoxicity assays in mammalian cells. To determine

International Journal of Scientific and Technological Research, 2019 Currently, humans and other living things can have many genotoxic damages due to reasons such as chemicals, drugs, unfavorable environmental effects. Breaks in the DNA structure due to genotoxic damage can cause mutations, changes in chromosome structure
