The biomarkers were 1-hydroxy-2-(N-acetylcysteinyl)-3-butene (1) and 1-(N-acetylcysteinyl)-2-hydroxy-3-butene (2) [collectively called MHBMA for monohydroxybutyl mercapturic acid] and 1,2-dihydroxy-4-(N-acetylcysteinyl) butane (3) [DHBMA for dihydroxybutyl mercapturic acid], metabolites of 1,3-butadiene; 1-(N-acetylcysteinyl)-propan-3-ol (4, HPMA for 3-hydroxypropyl mercapturic acid), a metabolite of acrolein; 2-(N-acetylcysteinyl) butan-4-ol (5, HBMA for 4-hydroxybut-2-yl mercapturic acid), a metabolite of crotonaldehyde; (N-acetylcysteinyl) benzene (6, SPMA for S-phenyl mercapturic acid), a metabolite of benzene; (N-acetylcysteinyl) ethanol (7, HEMA for 2-hydroxyethyl mercapturic acid), a metabolite of ethylene oxide; 1-hydroxypyrene (8) and its glucuronides (1-HOP), metabolites of pyrene; and 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol (9) and its glucuronides (total NNAL), a biomarker of exposure to 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK).

This cross-sectional study aimed at examining (a) whether the urinary excretion of a metabolite of ethylene oxide, 2-hydroxyethyl mercapturic acid (HEMA), could be used for monitoring occupational exposure and (b) whether glutathione S-transferase (GST) and epoxide hydrolase genotypes influenced biological monitoring.

J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci. 2010 Feb 24.

We developed and validated a method for the simultaneous determination of methylmercapturic acid (MMA, biomarker for methylating agents such as NDMA and NNK), 2-hydroxyethylmercapturic acid (HEMA, biomarker for ethylene oxide) and 2-cyanoethylmercapturic acid (CEMA, biomarker for acrylonitrile) in human urine using deuterated internal standards of each compound.

Additionally, the mercapturic acids of ethylene oxide (hydroxyethyl mercapturic acid, HEMA), propylene oxide (2-hydroxypropyl mercapturic acid, 2-HPMA), acrolein (3-hydroxypropyl mercapturic acid, 3-HPMA) as well as of 1,3-butadiene (3,4-dihydroxybutyl mercapturic acid, DHBMA and monohydroxy-3-butenyl mercapturic acid, MHBMA) can be determined.

J Mater Sci Mater Med. 2003 Jul;14(7):595-600.

The cytotoxicities of both homopolymers and copolymers of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and various alkyl acrylates (AA) were investigated using cell culture techniques.
After sterilization using ethylene oxide gas, cytotoxicity tests, including both direct and indirect contact tests, were performed using cell lines of L929 and normal human dermal fibroblasts.

This vehicle was composed of an amphiphilic co-polymer, poly (ethylene oxide)-b-poly (N-isopropylacrylamide-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-lactate (n)).
The molar ratio of NIPAAm to HEMA-lactate (n) to PEO in polymerization was optimized to produce an in vitro polymeric micelle half-life of about 48 h at 40 degrees C. 1,6-Diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) was used as a fluorescent probe to study the hydrophobicity of the cores of the polymeric micelles.
