- BACKGROUND: Toluene di-isocyanate (TDI) is widely used in the production of polyurethane foams and paints. As TDI causes respiratory disease in only a fraction of exposed workers, genetic factors may play a key role in disease susceptibility. Polymorphisms in TDI metabolising genes may affect elimination kinetics, resulting in differences in body retention, and in its turn differences in adverse effects. OBJECTIVES: To analyze how genotype modifies the associations between (i) TDI in air (2,4-TDI and 2,6-TDI) and its metabolites toluene diamine (TDA; 2,4-TDA and 2,6-TDA) in hydrolyzed urine; and (ii) 2,4-TDA and 2,6-TDA in hydrolyzed plasma and 2,4-TDA and 2,6-TDA in urine. METHODS: Workers exposed to TDI were analyzed for 2,4-TDI and 2,6-TDI in air (N=70), 2,4-TDA and 2,6-TDA in hydrolyzed urine (N=124) and in plasma (N=128), and genotype: CYP1A1*2A, CYP1A1*2B, GSTA1-52, GSTM1O, GSTM3B, GSTP1 I105V, GSTP1 A114V, GSTT1O, MPO-463, NAT1*3, *4, *10, *11, *14, *15, NAT2*5, *6, *7, and SULT1A1 R213H. RESULTS: GSTP1 105 strongly modified the relationship between 2,4-TDA in plasma and in urine: ValVal carriers had about twice as steep regression slope than IleIle carriers. A similar pattern was found for 2,6-TDA. CYP1A1*2A, GSTM1, GSTP1, GSTT1, and MPO possibly influenced the relationship between TDA in plasma and urine. CONCLUSION: Our results show, for the first time, genetic modification on the human TDI metabolism. The findings suggest that GSTP1 genotype should be considered when evaluating biomarkers of TDI exposure in urine and plasma. Moreover, the results support earlier findings of GSTP1 105 Val as protective against TDI-related asthma.

- A gas chromatography-negative ion chemical ionization-selected ion monitoring-mass spectrometry (GC-NICI-SIM-MS) method was used to quantitate the metabolite toluene diamine (TDA) in urine samples of toluene diisocyanate (TDI) exposed workers. In order to validate the biological monitoring method, air samples were collected and analyzed using a liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method. The urine samples were treated with liquid-liquid extraction to retrieve the toluene diamine (TDA). It was observed that urinary TDA levels were applicable fro biological monitoring of TDI exposure.

- OBJECTIVES :Toluene diisocyanate (TDI) is used in the manufacture of polyurethane and is a potent inducer of diseases of the airways. In this study, 2,4- and 2,6-toluenediamine in hydrolyzed urine and plasma were evaluated as biomarkers of exposure to 2,4- and 2,6-TDI, respectively. METHODS: For 81 exposed workers from nine different plants, the personal 8-hour time-weighted-average exposure to TDI was monitored by a filter method with 1-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazine. In parallel, urinary samples (U1) were collected during the last 4 hours of the workshift. On a different occasion, blood samples and additional urinary samples (U2) were collected from the exposed workers, and also from a reference group consisting of 121 unexposed workers. The biomarker levels were determined in urine and plasma by the use of alkaline hydrolysis. RESULTS: There were strong associations between the personal air and biomarker levels, with correlation coefficients in the range of 0.75-0.88 for the U1 samples and in the range of 0.50-0.78 for the plasma samples. By weighted linear regression, the relations were calculated between the air and biomarker levels. The slopes of the obtained regression curves ranged from 1.8 to 2.7 m3/1 for air-urine and from 2.2 to 2.9 m3/1 for air-plasma, and the intercepts were all close to the origin of the coordinates. Through the extrapolation of these regression curves, biological exposure limits were calculated. CONCLUSIONS: The biological monitoring methods and strategies presented in this report are useful for assessing exposure to TDI in practice.

- Occupational exposure to diisocyanates within the plastic industry causes irritation and disorders in the airway. The aim of this study was to develop, validate and characterize a method for the determination of 2,4-toluenediamine (2,4-TDA), 2,6-toluenediamine (2,6-TDA), 1,5-diaminonaphthalene (1,5-NDA) and 4,4'-methylenedianiline (4,4'-MDA) in hydrolysed urine and plasma, and to study the correlation between the plasma and urinary levels of these potential biomarkers of 2,4-toluene diisocyanate (2,4-TDI), 2,6-toluene diisocyanate (2,6-TDI), 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate (1,5-NDI) and 4,4'-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (4,4'-MDI), respectively. Samples were hydrolysed with 0.3 M NaOH at 100degreesC for 24 h. The diamines were extracted, derivatized with pentafluoropropionic acid anhydride, and quantified by selected ion monitoring on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The repeatability and reproducibility of the method were 7-18% and 7-19%, respectively. Dialysis experiments showed that the metabolites of 2,4-TDI, 2,6-TDI, 1,5-NDI and 4,4'-MDI in plasma were exclusively protein adducts. No free diamines were found in urine, indicating that all diisocyanate-related metabolites were in a conjugated form. For each diisocyanate-related biomarker, there were strongly significant correlations (p < 0.001) between individual levels of metabolites in plasma and urine, with Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (r(s)) values of 0.74-0.90. The methods presented here will be valuable for the development of biological monitoring methods for diisocyanates.

- There are few studies on phenylisocyanate (PhI) exposure, although there are studies indicating that PhI is a very potent chemical sensitizer. The aim of this study was to evaluate aniline in urine and plasma as possible biomarkers of exposure to PhI. Occupational airborne exposure to PhI was measured during one day for 11 workers exposed to thermal degradation products from polyurethane with filters impregnated with 2-methoxyphenyl piperazine. A urine sample was collected from each worker on measurement day, and plasma samples were collected within the following 2 weeks. Urine and plasma samples also were collected from four unexposed subjects. The biological samples were hydrolyzed and analyzed with gas chromatography mass spectrometry. The time-weighted averages (TWA) for the workers were between 0.1 and 1.6 microg/m3. Aniline levels in urine were in the same range for the exposed and unexposed workers, but there was a significant correlation between air and urinary levels (Pearson's correlation coefficient r = 0.518; p = 0.05). All exposed workers had higher levels in the plasma samples than the highest control, and there was a significant correlation between the plasma levels and measured air levels (r = 0.675; p = 0.008). The conclusion is that aniline in hydrolyzed urine and plasma are possible biomarkers of exposure to PhI, and that the plasma biomarker is more sensitive, at least at this rather low exposure.
