Radiation-Induced Apoptosis Measured in TK6 Human B Lymphoblast Cells Using the Comet Assay

The comet assay, a sensitive method of measuring DNA strand breaks in individuals cells, is also capable of identifying apoptotic cells which contain highly fragmented DNA. This method requires embedding cells in agarose, lysing cells to remove proteins, and providing a brief exposure to an electric...
