Chromosome Analysis: Karyotyping to detect chromosomal aberrations.
Comet Assay: A technique to measure DNA strand breaks in individual cells.
Micronucleus Test: A test to detect chromosomal fragments or whole chromosomes that are not incorporated into the nucleus after cell division.
Molecular Techniques: PCR and sequencing to identify specific point mutations or small insertions/deletions.
