## Abstract Individuals' susceptibility to DNA damage could be identified by mutagen‐challenged assays. We tested the hypothesis that susceptibility to DNA damage, measured by comet assay, may be associated with increased esophageal cancer (EC) risk. We recruited 102 subjects with previously untrea

The single cell gel electrophoresis assay (Comet assay) was used to measure DNA damage in peripheral lymphocytes from a group of individuals from The Gambia in order to determine whether such damage could be associated with increased exposure to aflatoxin in this population.

## Abstract The single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) or comet assay is based on the assumption that comet images result from genotoxic damage that ultimately generate DNA single‐ or double‐strand breaks. A criticism of the assay is that some or all of the comet images may be the result of apoptos
