Dedication To my loving mother
Preface The development of cellular sciences has now entered the stage which requires the evaluation of DNA damage at both the single-cell and the whole organism levels. New approaches are developed to satisfy this need, and the older established techniques were adapted to the task. Advances in organic chemistry, fluorescent microscopy, and materials science have created a whole new range of techniques and probe for imaging DNA damage in molecular and cell biology. The volume presents all major assays used in molecular and cell biology for the labeling of DNA damage in situ, ex vivo, and in vivo. It brings together recently introduced techniques, as well as those established earlier, which detect and quantify DNA damage at the scales ranging from subcellular to the level of a whole, living organism. Historically, many techniques which detect DNA damage were originally introduced to solve a utilitarian task of labeling apoptotic
