Disinfection by-products (DBPs) have received considerable focus due to potential teratogenic, carcinogenic, and mutagenic effects; however, there is an evident gap in the availability of analytical methodologies for the simultaneous determination of DBPs in fish, especially iodinated DBPs. This paper developed an innovative analytical method for the simultaneous determination of 12 DBPs, including four trihalomethanes (THMs), three haloacetonitriles, and five iodinated THMs (I-THMs), in fish muscle, utilizing solvent extraction followed by gas chromatography with electron capture detection. The method incorporates tert-butyl methyl ether as an extraction solvent, performing efficient vortex mixing, extraction, and centrifugation under reduced temperature conditions to facilitate the processing of physically disrupted fish tissues.

Background: At present, there is a lack of efficient biomarkers for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer, and the influence of natural factors such as high iodine exposure on the expression of biomarkers remains unclear.
Methods: Serum samples from papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and non-cancer controls matched 1:1 in different iodine nutritional regions were analyzed metabolomically using an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-Orbitrap Exploris mass spectrometry (UHPLC-OE-MS) platform. Then the data were randomly divided into training and test sets in a 1:1 ratio according to the different iodine nutritional regions and different PTC status.

A quantitative method was developed and validated to analyze iodoform and its potential metabolite, diiodomethane, in biological fluids from dairy cows, including rumen fluid, duodenal fluid, blood serum, milk, and urine, using liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) and GC-MS/MS. The method showed no matrix effects across different samples, recoveries of spiked samples between 70 and 120%, and relative standard deviations (RSD%) ranging from 0.7 to 14%.

The de-halogenation of highly concentrated halo-organic compounds using Zero Valent Iron entrapped in silica matrices as a catalyst was investigated. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Zero Valent Iron-entrapped organically modified silica matrices in transforming highly concentrated hazardous halogenated compounds into environmentally benign materials in the presence of BH. The Zero Valent Iron-entrapped silica gel matrices were synthesized using the sol-gel method.

This chapter details protocols for determining plasma thyroid hormone (TH) levels and tissue TH content by competitive radioimmunoassays (RIAs). These protocols include: an initial test of the chromatographic performance, isotopic labeling to produce high activity I-T3 and I-T4, free iodide estimation of the labeled products, purification of tracers from iodide by paper electrophoresis, extraction of THs from plasma and tissue samples, and the RIA procedures. The RIA involves the competition between radioactive labeled and unlabeled hormones for specific antibody binding, and due to its high sensitivity is capable of detecting a minimum of 2.
