مستخلص: An adapted method for the quantitative determination of isocyanates in air was implemented and validated in-house. The method was based on air sampling using an impinger flask containing di-n-butylamine (DBA) in toluene and a glass fibre filter in series. The DBA derivatives were determined using liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry. Studied isocyanates were isophorone diisocyanate, isocyanic acid (ICA), methyl isocyanate, ethyl isocyanate, propyl isocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), 2,6- and 2,4-toluene diisocyanate, 4,4′-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), phenyl isocyanate (PhI), MDI oligomers and different HDI adducts. Monitoring of selected reactions resulted in quantifications with correlation coefficients >0.995, within-batch relative standard deviation (RSD) of repeatability was <13% for all analytes. Between-batch RSD (reproducibility) was determined for all the compounds with the exception of the adducts and oligomers and was also <13%. As an additional validation procedure, the method was evaluated by exchanging field (air) and standard samples between two laboratories. The RSDs observed by the two laboratories were comparable. The concentrations determined were between 80 and 120% of each other, depending on the analyte and the individual concentrations. The method was applied in a large field study on exposure of workers in car repair shops and industrial painters with >500 samples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
