A Comet Assay for DNA Damage and Repair After Exposure to Carbon-Ion Beams or X-rays in

Ionizing radiation (IR) can result in serious genomic instability and genotoxicity by causing DNA damage. Carbon ion (CI) beams and X-rays are typical IRs and possess high-linear energy transfer (LET) and low-LET, respectively. In this article, a comet assay that was optimized by decreasing the elec...
