A highly sensitive and selective method for analysis of biomarkers of diisocyanate exposure in human urine by high-performance liquid chromatography with intramolecular excimer-forming fluorescence derivatization

摘要

Urinary aromatic diamines are exposure biomarkers of diisocyanate which are highly irritating to skin, mucosa and the upper respiratory system. In this study, a highly sensitive and selective high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) method was developed for determination of three aromatic diamines, 4,4'-methylenedianiline (MDA), 2,4-toluenediamine (4TDA) and 2,6-toluenediamine (6TDA) exposed to corresponding diisocyantes in human urine.
