Sperm DNA damage output parameters measured by the alkaline Comet assay and their importance
The alkaline Comet assay has shown high diagnostic value to determine male reproductive health and prognostic ability to predict ART success. Here, spermatozoon was analysed in 47 fertile donors and 238 patients, including 132 couples undergoing ART ...

Genomic instability in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus on hemodialysis
OBJECTIVE: A previous study by our research group evaluated the levels of DNA damage using the comet assay in hemodialysis patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The same blood samples were also evaluated using the cytochalasin B micronucleus assay.

DNA damage in buccal cells in oral PMDs and malignant disorders by comet assay
Aim: DNA damage associated with Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) and potentially malignant disorders (PMDs) is produced due to carcinogenic agents or increased oxidative stress. Comet assay can assist in early detection and evaluation of the amount of

Detection of Hypoxia in Human Brain Tumor Xenografts Using a Modified Comet Assay
We used the standard comet assay successfully to generate in vitro dose-response curves under oxic and hypoxic conditions. We then made mixtures of cells that had been irradiated with 3 and 9 Gy of X-rays to simulate two subpopulations in a tumor, but ...

The comet assay – how to recognise “good data”
Testing of potentially genotoxic materials currently involves use of in vitro assays such as the Ames test (gene mutations), the chromosome aberration assay and in vitro micronucleus assay (predominantly using human peripheral lymphocytes to detect ...
