Improved Comet assay for the assessment of UV genotoxicity in Mediterranean sea urchin eggs.

Environmental and molecular mutagenesis - 1 Jun 2008

Nahon Sarah, Charles François, Pruski Audrey M

Abstract excerpt

Gametes and embryos of broadcast spawners are exposed to a wide range of chemical and physical stressors which may alone, or in conjunction, have serious consequences on reproductive outcomes. In this study, two Mediterranean echinoid species, Paracentrotus lividus and Sphaerechinus granularis, were chosen as models to study the genotoxicity of UV radiation (UVR) on the eggs of broadcast-spawning marine...
