Abstract
The comet assay was applied to the biomonitoring of genotoxicity in shallow waters around the Brazilian Antarctic Station “Comandante Ferraz” (EACF). Mean values of DNA damage to animals captured from shallow waters nearby the Fuel Tanks (FT) and Sewage Treatment Outflow (STO) were significantly higher than the values of the controls captured from shallow waters of Punta Plaza (PPL) and Yellow Point (YP), naturally undisturbed places far from the EACF.
