Investigation of the Genotoxic Effect of Pesticides on Greenhouse Workers' Lymphocytes
Piperakis, S. M.; Kontogianni, K.; Karanastasi, G.; Iakovidou-Kritsi, Z.; Cebulska-Wasilewska, A.; Piperakis, M. M. (2009)In the present study, the genotoxic effects of commonly applied pesticides were evaluated using the alkaline comet assay (pH > 13). The amount of DNA damage (% DNA in tail) in peripheral lymphocytes of 49 male agricultural ... -
The use of comet assay in measuring DNA damage and repair efficiency in child, adult, and old age populations
Piperakis, S. M.; Kontogianni, K.; Karanastasi, G.; Iakovidou-Kritsi, Z.; Piperakis, M. M. (2009)In the present study, we used the Comet assay to estimate basal DNA damage in three distinct populations aged 5-10, 40-50, and 60-70 years old. The DNA damage induced by hydrogen peroxide and gamma-irradiation in the ...
