An integrative assessment to determine the genotoxic hazard of estuarine sediments: combining cell and whole-organism responses
The application of the Comet assay in environmental monitoring remains challenging in face of the complexity of environmental stressors, e.g. when dealing with estuarine sediments, that hampers the drawing of cause-effect relationships. Although the in vitro Comet assay may circumvent confounding fa...
