Applications of single cell gel electrophoresis assay in radiation research
Description
The single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE), also called comet assay, is a sensitive and rapid method for DNA damage detection in individual mammalian cell. Its use has increased significantly in the past few years. Applications in the field of radiation medicine are reviewed and possible future directions of the technique are briefly explored
