New Application of the Comet Assay [PDF]
Journal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry, 2011 The comet assay is a well-established, simple, versatile, visual, rapid, and sensitive tool used extensively to assess DNA damage and DNA repair quantitatively and qualitatively in single cells. The comet assay is most frequently used to analyze white blood cells or lymphocytes in human biomonitoring studies, although other cell types have been ...

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.

The Comet Assay: Tails of the (Un)expected. Use of the comet assay in pharmaceutical development.
Frontiers in Genetics, 2015 In genotoxicity testing of pharmaceuticals the rodent alkaline comet assay is being increasingly used as a second in vivo assay in addition to the in vivo micronucleus assay to mitigate in vitro positive results as recommended by regulatory guidance.

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 ...

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 and cancer.
