Quantification of hippuric acid and methylhippuric acid in human urine matrices provides information on the toluene and xylene exposure conditions. High performance liquid chromatography coupled with UV detection is the preferable technique for hippuric acid and methylhippuric acid detection in human urine. This study was conducted to present analytical techniques developed for monitoring of hippuric acid and methylhippuric acid in human urine matrices during 2016–2021.
Herein, a facile and low-cost method for the preparation of activated carbon from peanut shell was developed for the first time for the fast extraction and determination of Bisphenol A in human urine. Bisphenol A was separated by EC-C18 column (250 mm×4.6 mm, 4 μm) and was
detected by VWD, with retention time for qualitative analysis and peak area for quantitation. The parameters, pH values of the urine, adsorbent dose, adsorption time and so on, were optimized to achieve the excellent extraction performance. The detection limit of Bisphenol A in human urine
was 1.0 ng · mL−1 (S/N = 3), and the standard curve was linear in the range of 5.0 ng · mL−1˜200.0 ng · mL−1 (r = 0.9993). The average recovery of Bisphenol A was 78.5˜96.2% at three spiked levels in
the range of 5.00 ng · mL−1˜200.00 ng·mL−1. The method was proved simple, practical and highly sensitive, which could satisfy the request for the determination of Bisphenol A in human urine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
