## Abstract Comet assay was applied to study induction and repair of DNA damage produced by bleomycin in barley genome. Experimental conditions were adapted to achieve efficient detection of both DNA singleβ and doubleβstrand breaks. Substantial increase of the parameter β% of DNA in tailβ was obse
The detection of DNA single-strand breaks (SSB) in human mononucleated white blood cells (MWBC) using a modified version of the nick translation assay is presented. This assay allows rapid and sensitive examination of SSB using only 5 ml heparinized blood fo'~ an eightfold determination. The assay w
