In urine the level of thiodiglycolic acid (TDGA) is a sensitive indicator of exposure of the human organism to some physiologically active or toxic substances, gases and vapors. The determination of TDGA by use of a voltammetric method based on electroreduction of TDGA in acidic solution at the hanging mercury drop electrode has been developed and practically tested. In order to eliminate the matrix effect of urine, prior to voltammetric measurement the samples are eluted from a small column of PVC powder. The method is simple, low cost, rapid and sensitive, appropriate for the needs of occupational medicine.

A sensitive and selective method for the detection of arsenic(iii) (As) based on chitosan-stabilized gold nanoparticles (CS/AuNPs) decorated with a 2,2'-thiodiacetic acid (TDA) nanoprobe was developed and used to detect and indicate the contamination of rice, drinking water and environmental water samples. AuNPs were reduced and stabilized with CS and subsequently functionalized with TDA. As interacted with the carboxylate group of TDA to form an As-TDA complex, inducing the aggregation of CS/AuNPs@TDA.

Objective: To analyse potential differences towards liver impairment status on vinyl chloride monomer(VCM) exposed population from technique under acetylene hydrochlorination to the one of ethylene oxychlorination respectively and to explore the possible reasons, which will pave the way for occupational health promotion in terms of hazard reduction.
Methods: a cross-sectional study was initiated between June and September in 2022 towards 2 groups of VCM exposed population from the facility of acetylene hydrochlorination(n=78) and the one of ethylene oxychlorination(n=69) in a PVC petrochemical complex enterprise(abbreviation of H) in Tianjin City. The demographic information concerning age, gender, messages on occupational history, field investigation were inquired through questionnaire interview.
Supramolecular Nature of Multicomponent Crystals Formed from 2,2'-Thiodiacetic Acid with 2,6-Diaminopurine or N9-(2-Hydroxyethyl)adenine.

The synthesis and characterization of the multicomponent crystals formed by 2,2'-thiodiacetic acid (Htda) and 2,6-diaminopurine (Hdap) or N9-(2-hydroxyethyl)adenine (9heade) are detailed in this report. These crystals exist in a salt rather than a co-crystal form, as confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffractometry, which reflects their ionic nature. This analysis confirmed proton transfer from the 2,2'-thiodiacetic acid to the basic groups of the coformers.

The vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), a common raw material in the plastics industry, is one of the environmental pollutants to which humans are mostly exposed. Thiodiglycolic acid (TDGA) in human urine is a specific biomarker of its exposure. TDGA plays an important role in understanding the relationships between exposure to the VCM and the identification of subgroups that are at increased risk for disease diagnosis.

Humans are widely and concurrently exposed to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). However, few studies have reported the internal co-exposure levels of these chemicals in occupational and general populations. Specifically, the associations revealed between the urinary levels of metabolites of VOCs (mVOCs), hydroxylated PAHs (OH-PAHs), and oxidative stress biomarkers for humans remain limited.
