Assessing the genotoxicity of oral titanium dioxide nanoparticle administration in male rats using micronuclei and comet assay [PDF]
Fayoum Journal of Agricultural Research and Development, 2023 This study evaluated the toxic effects of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) on rats that received oral administration of TiO2-NPs with a particle size of 15±2nm once daily at doses of 0, 50, 100, 150, 200, and 300mg/kg for ten weeks.

Food Materials Research, 2023 The objective of the present study was to estimate applied doses of irradiated anchovy (1.83−4.22 kGy) and bluefish (1.98−5.40 kGy) for shelf-life extension by using image analysis in combination with comet assay for trading irradiated fish, especially ...

Nature, 1870 IN NATURE of 16th December, Prof. Tait advances the opinion that the tail of a comet consists of nothing but meteorites; mentioning in proof of this that the orbits of the August and November meteors have been determined, and found to be identical with those of two known comets. I do not question the importance of this most remarkable fact, but I think

Actin filament attachments for sustained motility in vitro are maintained by filament bundling. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 We reconstructed cellular motility in vitro from individual proteins to investigate how actin filaments are organized at the leading edge. Using total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy of actin filaments, we tested how profilin, Arp2/3, and ...

Frontiers in Genetics, 2015 In the alkaline comet assay, cells are embedded in agarose, lysed, and then subjected to further processing including electrophoresis at high pH (>13). We observed very large variations of mean comet tail lengths of cell samples from the same population ...

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.

The spectrin cytoskeleton is crucial for adherent and invasive bacterial pathogenesis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Various enteric bacterial pathogens target the host cell cytoskeletal machinery as a crucial event in their pathogenesis. Despite thorough studies detailing strategies microbes use to exploit these components of the host cell, the role of the spectrin ...
