Milić, M; Ceppi, M; Bruzzone, M; Azqueta, A; Brunborg, G; Godschalk, R; Koppen, G; Langie, S; Møller, P; Teixeira, JP; Alija, A; Anderson, D; Andrade, VThe alkaline comet assay, or single cell gel electrophoresis, is one of the most popular methods for assessing DNA damage in human population. One of the open issues concerning this assay is the identification of those factors that can explain the large inter-individual and inter-laboratory variation. International collaborative initiatives such as the hCOMET project - a COST Action launched in 2016 - represent...

Møller, P; Azqueta, A; Boutet-Robinet, E; Koppen, G; Bonassi, S; Milić, M; Gajski, G; Costa, S; Teixeira, JP; Costa Pereira, C; Dusinska, MThe comet assay is a widely used test for the detection of DNA damage and repair activity. However, there are interlaboratory differences in reported levels of baseline and induced damage in the same experimental systems. These differences may be attributed to protocol differences, although it is difficult to identify the relevant conditions because detailed comet assay procedures are not always published. Here...
