substitute for a number of
chlorofluorocarbon solvents which were
withdrawn from use because of their
possible damaging effects to the ozone
layer. 3-Bromopropionic acid is a
human metabolite of 1-bromopropane
and a proposed biomarker of exposure.
An accurate and precise method was
developed for the detection and
quantitation of 3-bromopropionic acid
in human urine. This method was
published in the literature (B’Hymer CB,
Cheever KL [2004]. J Chromatogr B
802:361–366). The method was
validated by a second laboratory and is
proposed for inclusion in NMAM’s 5th
Edition.
