The comet assay as a method for assessing dna damage in cryopreserved samples
Cryo Letters. 2024 Jan-Feb;45(1):1-15.ABSTRACTThe preservation of the nuclear genome's integrity is paramount for the viability and overall health of cells, tissues, and organisms. DNA, being susceptible to damage under physiological conditions and vulnerable to both endogenous and environmental factors, faces constant threats. To assess DNA damage and repair within individual eukaryotic cells, the comet assay presents itself as a versatile, gel electrophoresis-based, relatively simple, and highly sensitive method. Originally designed to monitor DNA damage and repair within populations of mammalian cells, the comet assay h...
