Measuring DNA modifications with the comet assay: a compendium of protocols
Collins, Andrew; Møller, Peter; Gajski, Goran; Vodenková, Soňa; Abdulwahed, Abdulhadi; Anderson, Diana; Bankoglu, Ezgi Eyluel; Bonassi, StefanoThe comet assay is a versatile method to detect nuclear DNA damage in individual eukaryotic cells, from yeast to humans. The types of damage detected encompass DNA strand breaks and alkali-labile sites (e.g., apurinic/apyrimidinic sites), alkylated and oxidized nucleobases, DNA-DNA crosslinks, UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, some chemically induced DNA adducts. Depending on the specimen type, there ar...

DNA damage in circulating leukocytes measured with the comet assay may predict ...
Bonassi, Stefano; Ceppi, Marcello; Møller, Peter; Azqueta, Amaya; Milić, Mirta; Monica, Neri; Brunborg, Gunnar; Godschalk, Roger; Koppen, GudrunThe comet assay or single cell gel electrophoresis is the most common method used to measure strand breaks and a variety of other DNA lesions in human populations. To estimate the risk of overall mortality, mortality by cause, and cancer incidence associated with DNA damage, a cohort of 2,403 healthy individuals (25,978 person-years) screened in 16 laboratories using the comet assay between 1996 and 2016 was fo...

The comet assay in animal models: from bugs to whales (Part 1: invertebrates)
Gajski, Goran; Žegura, Bojana; Ladeira, Carina; Pourrut, Bertrand; Del Bo’, Cristian; Novak, Matjaž; Sramkova, Monika; Milić, MirtaThe comet assay, also called single cell gel electrophoresis, is a sensitive, rapid and low-cost technique for quantifying and analyzing DNA damage and repair at the level of individual cells. The assay itself can be applied on virtually any cell type derived from different organs and tissues of eukaryotic organisms. Although it is mainly used on human cells, the assay has applications also in the evaluation of...
The comet assay in animal models: from bugs to whales (Part 2: vertebrates)
Gajski, Goran; Žegura, Bojana; Ladeira, Carina; Novak, Matjaž; Sramkova, Monika; Pourrut, Bertrand; Del Bo’, Cristian; Milić, MirtaThe comet assay has become one of the methods of choice for the evaluation and measurement of DNA damage. It is sensitive, quick to perform and relatively affordable for the evaluation of DNA damage and repair at the level of individual cells. The comet assay can be applied to virtually any cell type derived from different organs and tissues. Even though the comet assay is predominantly used on human cells, the...
