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...

Hazard Assessment of Benchmark Metal-Based Nanomaterials Through a Set of In Vi...
Vital, Nádia; Pinhão, Mariana; Yamani, Naouale El; Rundén-Pran, Elise; Louro, Henriqueta; Dušinská, Maria; Silva, Maria JoãoFor safety assessment of nanomaterials (NMs), in vitro genotoxicity data based on welldesigned experiments is required. Metal-based NMs are amongst the most used in consumer products. In this chapter, we report results for three metal-based NMs, titanium dioxide (NM- 100), cerium dioxide (NM-212) and silver (NM-302) in V79 cells, using a set of in vitro genotoxicity assays covering different endpoints: the medi...
