What Are Some Key Techniques in Genetic Toxicology?
There are several advanced techniques used in genetic toxicology to study the impact of toxicants on DNA. These include genomics, which examines the complete set of genes, and transcriptomics, which studies RNA transcripts. Other methods include mutagenesis assays to detect mutations, and comet assays to measure DNA damage. Each of these techniques provides valuable insights into the mechanisms of toxicity at a genetic level.
