Summary A GC-MS method is described for the determination of thiodiglycolic acid in 1 ml-samples of urine. The variation coefficient for a series of four determinations was 2.7%. To investigate the variation between values determined on different days, four samples were analysed over periods of 4–8 days. The mean variation coefficient of this series was 6.4 ± 1.3%. From 34 different human urine specimen from males aged between 20 and 55 years, an average level of 0.64 ± 0.32μg/ml was determined. From 14 females aged between 19 and 42 years, the corresponding values were 0.51 ± 0.20μg/ml.
