| evaluation of dna damage in common carp (cyprinus carpio l.) by comet assay for determination of possible pollution in lake mogan (ankara). | contamination of the aquatic environment with various concentrations of pollutants results in unexpected threats to humans and wildlife. the consequences of exposure and metabolism of pollutants/xenobiotics, especially carcinogens and mutagens, can be suitably assessed by investigating severe events, such as dna damage; for example, dna adducts and dna strand breaks. one of the commonly used techniques to detect dna damage in aquatic organisms is single-cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay). th ... | 2011 | 21805014 |
