Abstract

See full text

Devices and methods for detecting radiation-induced cell damage by directly measuring DNA damage resulting from delivered radiation exposure is disclosed herein. The device can measure the rate of DNA double-strand break, which is the dominant factor for radiation induced cell damage. This approach enables more accurate measurements as compared to current exposure-based dosimetry. In embodiments, the device is comprised of magnetic streptavidin beads and strands of DNA configured with a biotin on one end and fluorescein on the other.
