Three biomarkers for benzene exposure were developed. The first biomarker, muconic acid in urine, results from the ring opening of a benzene metabolite. A gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) assay was developed to measure urinary muconic acid, and the analyte in

The present study was aimed at the characterization of the major adducts formed by reaction of the metabolites of [14C]benzene with rat hemoglobin in vivo. Groups of 12-week-old male Fisher rats received i.p. injections of a single dose of 10

Carcinogenesis, 13(7), 1217-1220 (1992-07-01)
Results of experiments in our laboratory have shown that benzene is metabolized by animals in part to an intermediate that binds to cysteine groups in hemoglobin to form the adduct S-phenylcysteine (SPC). These results suggested that SPC in hemoglobin may

Environmental health perspectives, 104 Suppl 6, 1147-1149 (1996-12-01)
Biological markers of internal dose are useful for improving the extrapolation of health effects from exposures to high levels of toxic air pollutants in animals to low, ambient exposures in humans. Previous results from our laboratory have shown that benzene
W E Bechtold et al.
Archives of toxicology, 66(5), 303-309 (1992-01-01)
Benzene is metabolized to intermediates that bind to hemoglobin, forming adducts. These hemoglobin adducts may be usable as biomarkers of exposure. In this paper, we describe the development of a gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy assay for quantitating the binding of the
