R&D Systems offers a complete system to run a traditional comet assay. Products include CometAssay Kits, CometSlides, CometAssay Control Cells, and a specialized CometAssay Electrophoresis System.
CometAssay® Kit
Kits include CometAssay LMAgarose, CometAssay Lysis Solution, EDTA, and CometSlide in a 2-well format.
CometAssay® Electrophoresis System II
Designed to optimize and standardize alkaline and neutral comet assays. Accommodates 2-well and 3-well slides and maintains correct position during electrophoresis.
CometAssay® Analysis Software
Rapidly evaluate a large number of cells by automatically locating and scoring images in seconds with the ability to analyze both alkaline and neutral comet conditions
CometSlides™
Specially treated slides to promote agarose adherence and easy application of cells directly to each well. 2-well slides are available to allow for flexibility and scalability based on slide format.
FLARE™ Slides
A 3-well slide that promotes adherence of LMAgarose and creates rapid and reliable analysis of large numbers of samples in a standard format.
CometAssay® Starter Kits
Starter kits come in 2-well format and contain the CometAssay Kit, CometAssay Control Cells, as well as the CometAssay Electrophoresis System II.
CometAssay® Control Cells
Standardize comet assay runs with cryopreserved cells containing different levels of DNA damage. CometAssay Control Cells are offered for both neutral and alkaline comet assay.
CometAssay® Silver Staining Reagents and Kit
Visualize using a standard light microscopy and stain slides permanently for archiving.
