Journal ArticleDOI

DNA damage in bipolar disorder.

TL;DR: It was showed that BD outpatients present an increased frequency of DNA damage relative to controls, and the frequency ofDNA damage correlated with the severity of symptoms of depression and mania.
Journal ArticleDOI

Follow-up study of the genetic damage in lymphocytes of pharmacists and nurses handling antineoplastic drugs evaluated by cytokinesis-block micronuclei analysis and single cell gel electrophoresis assay.

TL;DR: Although the micronucleus analysis seems to be less sensitive to assess DNA damage, it detects chromosome aberrations and not just repairable DNA breakage and alkali-labile sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the genotoxic effect of rutin and quercetin by comet assay and micronucleus test.

TL;DR: In this article, the capacity of rutin and quercetin to cause damage to the DNA was evaluated using the alkaline single-cell gel electrophoresis (SCG) and micronucleus test in the bone marrow of mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

An alkaline single-cell gel electrophoresis (comet) assay for environmental biomonitoring with native rodents

TL;DR: The use of this SCG technique for direct sampling in the field should facilitate environmental genotoxic studies with natural populations, without the need to remove the animals from their habitat or to sacrifice them.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genotoxic effects of copper sulphate in freshwater planarian in vivo, studied with the single-cell gel test (comet assay).

TL;DR: It is concluded that planarians are suitable organisms for in vivo detection of copper genotoxicity in the comet assay, and can be used to assess both acute and chronic exposure to this chemical in aquatic ecosystems.
