A new direct method using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry has been developed and validated for quantitation of 3-hydroxypropylmercapturic acid (3-HPMA) in urine. The method is fast, simple, and does not require extraction from urine. Analyte was separated on a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography column. Severe ion suppression was circumvented by a fast gradient after separation. Assay specificity, linearity, precision, and accuracy met the required FDA/CDER bioanalytical method criteria. Matrix effect and carryover of the assay were assessed. Urine sample storage stability and standard solution stability were also tested. The limit of quantitation was 22.0 ng/mL. The results for 3-HPMA obtained by our method were significantly correlated with results obtained by a contract lab.

The cumulative toxicity of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) cause many medical diseases. We analyzed the evidence of association between VOCs and risk of metabolic syndrome in the Korean population using 1771 participants from the 2023 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The creatinine-corrected urinary concentrations of BMA, 2-MHA, PGA, SPMA, 3-HPMA, BPMA and DHBMA were higher in the metabolic syndrome group than in the non-metabolic syndrome group.

While volatile organic compounds (VOCs) impair various organs, their influence on hearing loss (HL) has not been extensively researched. We aimed to identify the association between VOCs and HL or high-frequency hearing loss (HFHL). We extracted data on age, sex, pure tone audiometry, hypertension, occupational noise exposure, and creatinine-corrected urine VOC metabolite concentrations from the eighth Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey.

Urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC) has been linked to environmental chemical exposures in people, but these risk factors are not well understood in dogs with UCC. We hypothesised that household chemical exposures contribute to the risk of UCC in pet dogs. This prospective cross-sectional case-control study included 37 dogs with UCC and 37 unaffected breed-, sex-, and age-matched controls.

This study assessed changes in biomarkers of exposure (BoE) after 5 days of completely or partially switching to an electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) use, compared with continued use of combustible cigarettes and smoking abstinence among Chinese adult smokers. A randomized, open-label, parallel-arm study was conducted among Chinese adult smokers who were naive ENDS users. Forty-six subjects were randomized to 4 study groups (n = 11-12 per group): exclusive ENDS use, dual use of ENDS and cigarettes, exclusive cigarettes use, and smoking abstinence.
