    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird eine dünnschichtchromatographisch-densitometrische Methode zur Bestimmung der Hippursäurekonzentration im menschlichen Urin beschrieben. Ihre unter den Bedingungen der statistischen Qualitätskontrolle ermittelte Genauigkeit beträgt 6,85%. Die Wiederauffindungsraten lagen zwischen 98,1 und 104,5%. Diese Zuverlässigkeitskriterien werden mit der auf Pagnotto zurückgehenden UV-spektrometrischen Bestimmungsmethode verglichen. Die Selektivität der Methode erlaubt es u.a., die bei einer Mischexposition gegenüber Toluol und Xylolen im Harn auftretenden Tolursäuren von Hippursaure abzutrennen und zu bestimmen. Die dünnschichtchromatographisch bestimmte mittlere Hippursäureausscheidung eines Normal-Kollektivs (n = 30) betrug 0, 79 g/l. Ein Kollektiv von toluolexponierten Arbeitern wurde zu Schichtbeginn und gegen Schichtende hinsichtlich seiner Hippursäureausscheidung untersucht. Bei einer mittleren Toluolkonzentration in der Luft von 27 ppm ergab sich eine densitometrisch bestimmte mittlere Hippursäureausscheidung von
    Notes: Summary A thin-layer chromatographic-densitometric method for determining hippuric acid in human urine is described. Under conditions of statistical quality control the precision of the method is 6.85%. The rate of recovery is 98.1–104.5%. The selectivity of the method enables separation and determination of, among others, hippuric acid from methyl-hippuric acids. These acids are eliminated in the urine of people exposed to toluene as well as to xylenes. The criteria for reliability are compared with those of the UV-spectrometric method tracing back to Pagnotto. The average concentration of hippuric acid as determined by thin-layer chromatography of a group of normal persons (n = 30) was 0.79 g/l. A group of employees exposed to toluene was examined according to their elimination of hippuric acid at the beginning and the end of their shift. An average concentration of 27 ppm of toluene in the air caused an average elimination of hippuric acid in urine of 2.04 g/l which was determined densitometrically.

    Notes: Summary A simple and reliable analytical method for the determination of cobalt in human urine is described. After an extraction step, cobalt is measured with the aid of flameless atomic absorption spectrometry. The detection limit is 0.1 μg cobalt per litre urine. The recovery of cobalt, determined by the addition of a defined cobalt concentration to the urine, is in the range of 101–107%. The relative standard deviation is between 3.4 and 8.6%. In the urine of persons not professionally exposed to cobalt, concentrations between 0.1 and 0.75 μg/l were found.

    Notes: Summary Twenty-two persons (20 men and 2 women) were examined for their external and internal exposure to the glycol ether 1-methoxypropan-2-ol (PGME) during the production, leak testing and mounting of brake-hoses. For the measurement of external exposure, personal air monitoring was the method of choice. Average concentrations of PGME of 82.2 mg/m3 (22.3 ppm), 68.6 mg/m3 (18.6 ppm) and 11.3 mg/m3 (3.1 ppm) were found in the air of the brakehose production, leak test and mounting areas, respectively. For the estimation of internal exposure to PGME, this glycol ether was measured in both urine and blood. The biological samples were taken post-shift. The highest internal exposure levels were found in the brakehose production section and in the leak test area. The average post-shift concentrations for PGME in workers in the brakehose production section were 4.6 mg/l in urine and 13.5 mg/l in blood; the corresponding figures for workers in the leak test area were 4.2 mg/l in urine and 11.0 mg/l in blood. In blood and urine samples of workers engaged in the mounting area, PGME levels were below the detection limits. The elimination kinetics of PGME were also studied in three highly exposed persons, and mean excretion half-lives of PGME of approximately 4.4 h were found. On the basis of our results we made a rough calculation of a future biological tolerance value: we would except that concentrations of 38-109 mg per litre of blood and 10–31 mg per litre of urine would correspond to the German MAK value for PGME (375 mg/m3).

    Notes: Summary An analytically reliable “one-vessel-method” for the determination of nickel in urine is described. After an extraction step, the metal content is analysed by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. The detection limit amounts to 0.1 μg/l. The coefficients of variability for determinations in series are between 2.5 and 9.5% and the recoveries between 98 and 105%. In a group of occupationally unexposed persons (n = 39), concentrations of nickel in urine are measured from 0.34 to 2.25 μg/1. The upper normal level is estimated to be 1.9 μg/l.

    Notes: Abstract  Objective: An analytical method has been established to determine the concentration of antimony (Sb), bismuth (Bi), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), palladium (Pd), platinum (Pt), tellurium (Te), tin (Sn), thallium (Tl) and tungsten (W) in urine. The aim was to develop a method which is equally suitable for the determination of environmentally as well as occupationally caused metal excretion. Methods: Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) was used for the determination of metals. Calibration was done using aqueous solutions and standard addition respectively. Results: Urine samples of 14 persons occupationally non-exposed to metals were analysed. With the exception of Pt and Bi all the metals were found in these urine samples. The detection limits for these metals lie between 5 and 50 ng/l. Conclusions: For some metals, which are important from an occupational as well as an environmental viewpoint, ICP-MS is more sensitive than atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). ICP-MS, moreover, is welcome as a reference method for AAS with the additional advantage of multi-element measurement.

Die analytische ZuverlÄssigkeit dieser Methode erfüllt die Anforderungen der statistischen QualitÄtskontrolle. Die Wiederauffindungsraten lagen zwischen 97,5 und 104 %, die VariabilitÄtskoeffizienten zwischen 3,3 und 3,8 %. Die Nachweisgrenze von rund 0,6 mg HippursÄure/1 Serum ermöglicht es, nicht nur bei toluolbelasteten Arbeitern, sondern auch bei Normalpersonen den HippursÄuregehalt im Serum zu bestimmen. Die praktische Anwendbarkeit dieser Methode wird an einer kleinen Gruppe von unbelasteten Personen (n=8) sowie an einem Kollektiv von toluolexponierten Arbeitnehmern (n=98) demonstriert.
    Notes: Summary A gas chromatographic method for determining hippuric acid in human serum is described. The analytical reliability of this method fulfills the criteria of statistical quality control. The rate of recovery is 97.5 to 104 %, the variability coefficients lie between 3.3 and 3.8 %. The detection limit of about 0.6 mg hippuric acid/1 serum enables determination of the concentration of hippuric acid in the serum of employees exposed to toluene as well as that of normal persons. The practical applicability of this method is demonstrated in a small group of unexposed persons (n=8) and a group of employees exposed to toluene (n=98).

    Notes: Summary A group of printing workers (n = 34) exposed to toluene was examined according to the concentrations of hippuric acid, phenol, o-cresol, and (m+p)-cresol in urine. The average concentration in the air of the workroom was 23 ppm. It is shown that, besides hippuric acid, small amounts $$(\bar x = 1.1{\text{ }}mg/l)$$ of o-cresol. which is not a normal constituent of urine, were formed from toluene. The occurrence of o-cresol could be proved by mass spectrometry. On account of the small amounts of benzene present in industrially used toluene—in this case 0.025%—the average concentration of phenol in urine of the exposed group was significantly higher statistically $$(\bar x = 7.6 \pm {\text{ 4}}{\text{.3 }}mg/l)$$ than in urine from the controls $$(\bar x = 5.3 \pm {\text{ 2}}{\text{.0 }}mg/l; n = 28)$$ .

    Notes: Summary Gas chromatographic and high pressure liquid chromatographic methods for the determination of phenol and cresols in urine are described. In both cases phenol is determined specifically; o-, m- und p-cresols are not separated by high pressure liquid chromatography. However, o-cresole is separated by gas chromatography. On account of the special preparation of urine samples both methods are very sensitive. The detection limits lie between 0.2 and 1.3 mg/l. 24-h samples of normal urines (n = 30) are analysed (xphenol = 4.6 mg/l; xp-cresol = 45.7 mg/l, respectively 52.6 mg/l). These results are compared with those of a photometric method.
