		The Noyyal river, a tributary of the Cauvery, originates in the Western Ghats in the Coimbatore district, Tamilnadu and passes through two industrial cities, Coimbatore and Tirupur before it mixes with the Cauvery river.
		The river is severely polluted by the industrial effluents and sewage released from Coimbatore and Tirupur.
		The results of this study indicate that the Noyyal river system is contaminated with substances that are genotoxic to fish and earthworms, and that the comet assay has sufficient sensitivity to detect the genotoxicity of environmental samples.
