    • Assessing the DNA methylation status of single cells with the comet assay 

      Wentzel, Johannes F.; Gouws, Chrisna; Huysamen, Cristal; Van Dyk, Etresia; Koekemoer, Gerhard; Pretorius, Pieter J. (Elsevier, 2010)
      The comet assay (single cell gel electrophoresis) is a cost-effective, sensitive, and simple technique that is traditionally used for analyzing and quantifying DNA damage in individual cells. The aim of this study was to ...

    • The genotoxic effect of gold nanoparticles in cultured human cells 

      Mulder, Danielle Wingrove (North-West University (South Africa), 2016)
      Gold nanoparticles are ultrafine particles which are being used diversely in the medical field. Despite their versatility, the toxicity research which has been conducted on these particles is incredibly limited as well ...

    • Metabolic variation in cultured cells treated with differentially functionalised gold nanoparticles (GNPs) 

      Roets, Aletta Catharina (North-West University (South Africa), Potchefstroom Campus, 2017)
      Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) and differentially functionalised or ligand exchanged GNPs (Lig-GNPs) present promising advantages in a variety of fields. Surface functionalisation of GNPs with ligands is believed to improve the ...
