Abstract. In the framework of the study, the degree of defragmentation of DNA by the DNA-comet method
is evaluated when exposed to the cell culture of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and an in vitro model is developed to
evaluate the antioxidant activity of new pharmacological agents. The results of working with cell lines show that
the percentage of damage to the genetic material of cells of intact samples does not greatly vary from the method
of removing the cellular monolayer from the culture plastic. Concerning the effect of H2O2 as an inducer of
oxidative stress on DNA cell damage, the optimal level of DNA defragmentation has been modeled for subsequent
studies of the protective action of antioxidants.
Key words: antioxidants, oxidative stress, genotoxicity, hydrogen peroxide, antioxidant effect, gallic acid, DNA-comet method, model of transplantable cell cultures.
