Modification of comet-FISH technique by using temperature instead of chemical denaturation
MethodsX, 2014 Comet-FISH technique is an extension of commonly used comet assay. Its purpose is to determine whether primary DNA damage which comet assay detects occurred within a sequence of interest that is visualized by hybridization of fluorescent probe.

Closing the gap: from public concerns about health effects to science-based testing of chemicals
Frontiers in Genetics, 2015 The comet assay is a powerful technology for measuring DNA integrity in humans and other organisms at the level of individual cells. The assay is used for research and industrial testing but suffers from a lack of standardisation, which hinders its use ...
