Comparing Urinary Biomarkers of Airborne and Dermal Exposure to Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds in Asphalt-Exposed Workers
Annals of Occupational Hygiene , 08/12/09
Sobus JR et al. – U–Nap, U–Phe, OH–Phe, and OH–Pyr can be used as biomarkers of exposure to particulate asphalt emissions, with OH–Phe being the most promising candidate. Indications that levels of U–Nap, U–Phe, and OH–Pyr were significantly associated with dermal patch measurements well into the evening after a given work shift, combined with the small ratios of within–person variance components to between–person variance components at bedtime, suggest that bedtime measurements may be useful for investigating dermal PAH exposures.
