Critical analysis of biomonitoring endpoints for measuring exposure to polymeric diphenyl-methane-4,4'-diisocyanate (MDI) in rats: a comparison of markers of exposure and markers of effect

Abstract: The object of this study was to compare the relative sensitivity of markers of exposure and effects in the lung of rats exposed to polymeric diphenyl-methane-4,4'-diisocyanate (pMDI) aerosol. Rats were repeatedly exposed to 12.9 mg pMDI/m(3) (6 h/day, 5 days/week for 14 days; exposure was from days 0--17 followed by a post-exposure period to day 35). Markers of exposure were determined in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), blood (haemoglobin, plasma proteins), and urine on days 1, 4, 11, 18, 21, 28 and 35. Markers … Show more

“…The choice of strain was based on previous studies with this substance (Pauluhn, 2002a;Pauluhn and Lewalter, 2002;Pauluhn and Leng, 2003). At the commencement of the study, the rats were approximately 2-3 months old and their mean (±S.D.)…”

“…The average calculated exposure dose was 0.14 mg pMDI/kg bw. Atmospheres of pMDI aerosol were generated as described in previous studies (Pauluhn, 2002a;Pauluhn and Lewalter, 2002;Pauluhn and Leng, 2003). Briefly, under dynamic conditions using a digitally controlled Hamilton Microlab M pump and a modified Schlick-nozzle Type 970, form-S 3 (Schlick GmbH, Coburg, Germany).…”

“…The mechanism for sensitization by MDI has, however, still not been explained. In the rat, a half-life of 5.4 days could be found for the MDI protein adduct, which is twice as high as that for serum albumin in the same species (Pauluhn 2002). In humans, the half-life for serum albumin is 10 to 20 days (Margen and Tarver 1956).…”

“…A very small amount of MDI also binds to hemoglobin, so that MDI-Hb adducts are detectable in the erythrocytes of workers exposed to MDI (Schütze et al 1995;Sepai et al 1995) as well as in those of rats (Pauluhn 2002;Sabbioni et al 2000).…”
