Resumo(s)
Comet assay has been widely used to measure DNA damage as a marker of exposure to
genotoxic events. The use of this method in human biomonitoring studies requires a
solid understanding of the main factors that may contribute to DNA damage. Even
though many demographic and lifestyle factors have been identified as possible
confounders for genetic damage its influence remains controversy. The aim of the
present study was to evaluate how demographic (age, gender and body mass index) and
lifestyle (exercise, smoking habits and hydration status) factors relate to DNA damage.
