The hCOMET Project: International Database Comparison of Results with the Comet Assay in Human Biomonitoring. Baseline Frequency of DNA Damage and Effect of Main Confounders
(2021)
[Abstract] The alkaline comet assay, or single cell gel electrophoresis, is one of the most popular methods for assessing DNA damage in human population. One of the open issues concerning this assay is the identification ...
Minimum Information for Reporting on the Comet Assay (MIRCA): Recommendations for Describing Comet Assay Procedures and Results
(2020)
[Abstract] The comet assay is a widely used test for the detection of DNA damage and repair activity. However, there are interlaboratory differences in reported levels of baseline and induced damage in the same experimental ...
Neuronal Cytotoxicity and Genotoxicity Induced by Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles
(Elsevier, 2013-03-26)
[Abstract] Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are one of the most abundantly used nanomaterials in consumer products and biomedical applications. As a result, human exposure to these NPs is highly frequent and they have ...
Inter-Laboratory Variation in DNA Damage Using a Standard Comet Assay Protocol
(Oxford University Press, 2012-07-27)
[Abstract] There are substantial inter-laboratory variations in the levels of DNA damage measured by the comet assay. The aim of this study was to investigate whether adherence to a standard comet assay protocol would ...
Low Vitamin D Levels and Frailty Status in Older Adults: a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
(2020)
[Abstract] Serum vitamin D deficiency is widespread among older adults and is a potential modifiable risk factor for frailty. Moreover, frailty has been suggested as an intermediate step in the association between low ...
Exploring Early Detection of Frailty Syndrome in Older Adults: Evaluation of Oxi-Immune Markers, Clinical Parameters and Modifiable Risk Factors
(2021)
[Abstract] Ageing is accompanied with a decline in several physiological systems. Frailty is an age-related syndrome correlated to the loss of homeostasis and increased vulnerability to stressors, which is associated with ...
