However, current analytical and separation techniques are often limited in the breadth of chemistry targeted, most often targeting less than 15 compounds. Challenges to successful methods with this compound group include chromatographic resolution, quantitation across diverse concentration ranges, and sample preparation due to the chemical similarity of these compounds. This project describes the development of a selective ion monitoring gas chromatography mass spectrometry method for quantitation of 29 phthalates and two phthalate replacements along with considerations for quantitation, sample cleanup, and standard storage. Our range of phthalates includes less-studied ones like bis(2-propylheptyl), diundecyl, didecyl, and ditridecyl. Analytical performance included limits of detection ranging from 17-230&amp;nbsp;ng/mL and robust reproducibility with relative percent differences below 8% for complex matrices. Two calibration ranges were used to accommodate the wide dynamic range of phthalate concentrations observed in real samples. Method application was demonstrated with edible oils (n = 12) and silicone wristbands (n = 18), representing dietary and personal exposure pathways. Sample preparation strategies, including solid phase extraction were evaluated to mitigate matrix interferences. In addition, compound storage stability was assessed over 133 days to inform best practices for standard preparation and handling. The finalized method demonstrates the uniquely large compound ranges for some phthalates and the importance of analyzing a wide variety of these compounds, making it a valuable foundation for comprehensive environmental monitoring of phthalates and their alternatives.&lt;/p&gt;

We used silicone wristbands worn for one week up to ten times at quarterly intervals from 2018 to 2022 to assess pesticide exposure in children from rural farmworker ( = 75) and urban non-farmworker ( = 61) families. We determined the detection and concentrations (ng/g) of 72 pesticides and pesticide degradation products in the wristbands using gas chromatography electron capture detection and gas chromatography mass spectrometry. The most frequently detected pesticide classes were organochlorines, pyrethroids, and organophosphates. Controlling for season, organochlorine or phenylpyrazole detections were less likely for rural children than for urban children. Detections of organochlorines, pyrethroids, or organophosphates were lower in spring and summer versus winter. Controlling for season, urban children had greater concentrations of organochlorines, while rural children had greater concentrations of pyrethroids and Chlorpyrifos. Pesticide concentrations were lower in winter and spring compared with summer and fall. These results further document that pesticides are ubiquitous in the living environment for children in vulnerable, immigrant communities.&lt;/p&gt;

As clean-up efforts began, concerns were raised regarding the human health impact of possible increased chemical exposure resulting from the hurricane and subsequent flooding. Personal sampling devices in the form of silicone wristbands were deployed to a longitudinal panel of individuals = 99) within 45 days of the hurricane and again one year later in the Houston metropolitan area. Using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy, each wristband was screened for 1500 chemicals and analyzed for 63 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Chemical exposure levels found on the wristbands were generally higher post-Hurricane Harvey. In the 1500 screen, 188 chemicals were detected, 29 were detected in at least 30% of the study population, and of those, 79% ( = 23) were found in significantly higher concentrations ( &amp;lt; 0.05) post-Hurricane Harvey. Similarly, in PAH analysis, 51 chemicals were detected, 31 were detected in at least 30% of the study population, and 39% ( = 12) were found at statistically higher concentrations ( &amp;lt; 0.05) post-Hurricane Harvey. This study indicates that there were increased levels of chemical exposure after Hurricane Harvey in the Houston metropolitan area.&lt;/p&gt;

Sample processing includes extraction of PAHs into a solution of ethyl acetate, acetone and isooctane followed by cleanup with dispersive SPE and analysis by GC-MS in SIM mode. Method performance was assessed in spike recovery experiments (500 μg/g wet weight) in three commercially available smoked salmon with 3-11% fat. Recoveries of some 2-, 3- and 5-ring PAHs were improved 50-200% over traditional methods, while average recovery across all PAHs was improved 67%. Method precision was good with replicate extractions typically yielding relative standard deviations &amp;lt;10%, and detection limits were in the low ng/g range. With this method, a single analyst could extract and clean up ≥60 samples for PAH analysis in an 8 h work day.&lt;/p&gt;
