Description

A healthy control cell population (C0) is treated with a DNA damaging agent to increase the amount of damage in populations C1, C2 and C3, respectively. Etoposide is the damaging agent used for Alkaline Control Cells (CC0-CC3) and Bleomycin is the damaging agent used for Neutral Control Cells (NC0-NC3).

FEATURES:

  • Provides a range of DNA damage for comparison with statistically distinct populations.
  • Allows for electrophoresis method to be standardized between individual users.
  • Standardized with Trevigen’s CometAssay® Electrophoresis System
  • Cell populations remain stable in liquid nitrogen for long term storage.
