Comet assay is a novel biological analysis, which is a sensitive, flexible, simple, rapid and inexpensive method to assess aquatic genotoxicant. Since singh and coworkers developed the method in 1988, its use has increased exponentially in various fields. This review discourses on the application of this assay in aquatic ecosystems. Various types of cells from various aquatic organisms have been tested by various genotoxicant both direct and indirect acting using the comet assay. The applications of this assay suggest that it is auseful assay to assess aquatic genotoxicants. However, they are some factors, which should be taken into account when using this assay as aquatic ecotoxicological assessment device such as inter animal and cell variability.
