Abstract excerpt
Unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) has been used as an endpoint for measuring DNA damage in vitro and in vivo. Determination of UDS is regarded as a reliable genotoxicity assay by regulatory agencies including US FDA and EPA. In this study, we have developed an improved UDS assay to detect DNA damage and repair processes upon chemical exposure. We utilized a dual-labeling procedure in which fluorescent DAPI stained...
