A routine procedure for the monitoring of occupational exposure to 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) based on the semiquantitative determination of 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene (4A2,6-DNT) in urine samples by gas chromatography (GC-MS) was developed. For calibration purposes, a standard sample of 4-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene was prepared. Urine
