Figure 6 - Examples of comet images showing similar levels of damage, but using different visualization. The top image was acquired with a digital color CCD camera from a specimen labelled with SYBR-Green, showing how the cell would look in the microscope eyepiece. The bottom image has been pseudo- colored with a color scale in which blues represent low intensities ranging to green and red for higher values.

Figure 8a - Komet Database Viewer loads the scored datasets and displays the analysis data and image of each comet scored. This is the basic View/Review tool and you can scroll down the dataset and view the cells in a kind of “movie” by holding down the keyboard scroll down key.

Figure 8b - This dataset is from a GLP study and shows audit trail, decoding records and summary data performed by the study director. Database Viewer lets you create a Gallery of comet images from a Database. This Gallery can be printed or used for review and training.

Figure 9a (left) - 3D Histogram presents study data where a Dose Response was detected. The progression from Negative control (in grey) through the dose groups to the Positive control (orange) is apparent in the data distributions for Tail DNA. Figure 9b (right) - The data can also be presented in Response Curve format & Summary data table.
