About This Course

The “Comet Assay to Study Antimutagenic Activity of Different Compounds” program is designed to provide a deep dive into the comet assay (single cell gel electrophoresis), a versatile and sensitive technique for measuring DNA damage and repair. Participants will learn the foundational principles and step-by-step methodologies of conducting comet assays, as well as how to interpret and utilize the results in practical and research settings.

Aim

This program aims to equip participants with the skills to conduct comet assays to evaluate the antimutagenic properties of various compounds. It focuses on understanding the interaction between these compounds and DNA, methods to mitigate genetic damage, and the implications for cancer research and environmental science.

Program Objectives

  • Master the comet assay technique for detecting DNA damage.
  • Understand the principles of antimutagenic activity and its measurement.
  • Develop skills to analyze and interpret assay data effectively.
  • Explore the use of comet assay in various applied sciences including toxicology and pharmacology.
  • Learn about current trends and future directions in genetic damage prevention.
