crude oil is enriched in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs). many pah analogs have proved to potentially damage dna. dna damage can be assessed using various biomarkers to find out the degree of genotoxicity of pollutants following in vitro exposure. in this research the comet assay and micronucleus (mn) test were used to detect dna damages and cytogenetic changes following crude oil expos...
