Component Description

Urinary Phthalates

Phthalate acid esters (phthalates) are used extensively as plasticizers in a wide range of applications such as children’s toys, food packaging, and medical supplies. Because some of these compounds are known to be estrogenic and have been associated with a host of health problems in rats, such as cancers and teratogenicity, governments in Europe and Japan have become increasingly concerned about levels in food packaging materials and children’s toys. Biomeasures of phthalates in humans is necessary to evaluate potential human health threats from exposure to these chemicals.

Urinary Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs)

PAHs constitute a group of chemicals, which are formed during the incomplete combustion of coal, oil and gas, garbage, and other organic substances. These compounds require metabolic activation prior to their interactions with cellular macromolecules. PAHs are ubiquitous, thus exposure to them is widespread. In general, people are exposed to mixtures of PAHs, the sources of which include vehicle exhausts, asphalt roads, coal, coal tar, wild fires, agricultural burning, charbroiled foods, and hazardous waste sites. Although most of the data regarding the carcinogenicity of these compounds comes from rats and mice, epidemiologic studies have shown increased mortality due to lung and bladder cancer in humans exposed to coke-oven emissions, roofing-tar emissions, and cigarette smoke. PAHs enter the body quickly and easily by all routes of exposure and are readily and predominantly metabolized to hydroxylated metabolites as well as glucuronide metabolites. These metabolites are excellent indicators of exposure to the parent PAHs. While background level ranges of PAHs in air and water are known, the equivalent metabolite background levels in humans are not known. Because of increased epidemiologic data relating PAH exposure to cancer incidence, biomonitoring PAH metabolites in humans is very important.

Urinary Phytoestrogens

Many different plants produce compounds, called phytoestrogens that mimic or interact with estrogen. The major classes of phytoestrogens are lignans (present in flaxseed, carrots, berries, and grapes) and isoflavones (present in soybeans and other legumes). Biomeasures of phytoestrogens are necessary to establish reference ranges for these compounds and to evaluate their potential effects on human health.

Eligible Sample

Participants aged 6 years and older.

Description of Laboratory Methodology

Data Collection Methods

Urine specimens are processed, stored, and shipped to the Division of Environmental Health Laboratory Sciences, National Center for Environmental Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for analysis.

Examination Protocol

Detailed specimen collection and processing instructions are discussed in the NHANES Laboratory/Medical Technologists Procedures Manual (LPM). Vials are stored under appropriate frozen (–20°C) conditions until they are shipped to National Center for Environmental Health for testing.

Analytic Methodology

Urinary Phthalates: Mono-Ethyl Phthalate, Mono-n-Butyl Phthalate, Mono-Cyclohexyl Phthalate, Mono- (2-Ethyl) Hexyl Phthalate, Mono-n-Octyl Phthalate, Mono-Benzyl Phthalate, and Mono-Isononyl Phthalate

Human urine samples were processed using enzymatic deconjugation of the glucuronides followed by solid-phase extraction. The eluate was concentrated, and the phthalate metabolites chromatographically resolved by reversed-phase HPLC, detected by APCI- tandem mass spectrometry (APCI-MS/MS), and quantified by isotope dilution. Assay precision was improved by incorporating 13C4- labeled internal standards for each of the seven analytes, as well as a conjugated internal standard to monitor deconjugation efficiency. This selective method allows for rapid detection of seven metabolites of commonly used dialkyl phthalates in human urine with limits of detection in the low parts per billion (ppb) range.

Urinary Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs)

This method is used to assess human exposure to selected PAHs, a class of potential human carcinogens, by determining the concentrations of their mono-hydroxy metabolites in urine. Common routes of occupational exposure to PAHs may include work involving diesel fuels and coal tars through paving and roofing. Possible environmental exposures may include smoking, dietary, smog and forest fires. Threshold levels for carcinogenicity have not been determined for most PAHs. Application of this method to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) project will help determine the concentration range of these chemicals in residents in the United States.

The specific analytes measured in this method are monohydroxy-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OH-PAH). The procedure involves enzymatic hydrolysis of urine (to hydrolyze PAH conjugates), solid-phase extraction, derivatization, and analysis using capillary gas chromatography combined with high-resolution mass spectrometry (GC/HRMS). This method uses isotope dilution with 13C-labeled internal standards. Ions from each analyte and each 13C-labeled internal standard are monitored, and the abundances of each ion are measured. The ratios of these ions are used as criteria for evaluating the data. By evaluating the concentrations of these analytes in urine, an assessment of human exposure to the respective PAH can be obtained.

Urinary Phytoestrogens: Daidzein, Genistein, Equol, O-Desmethylangolensin, Coumestrol, Matairesinol, Enterodiol, and Enterolactone

Phytoestrogens are plant compounds that can effect in vivo estrogen signaling. These "plant estrogens" have been shown to affect the human endocrine system and thus may affect human health. Consumption of foods rich in phytoestrogens is associated with many positive health outcomes: reduced risk for cancer and heart disease, reduction of menopausal symptoms and modulation of osteoporosis. The potential of these compounds to impact human health has led to the need for rapid, sensitive, and precise assays for phytoestrogen metabolites in physiological matrices. Previous methods for phytoestrogen quantitation used less selective and/or less sensitive techniques. Many laboratories use HPLC coupled with UV detection (1, 2) due to its low cost, although these methods lack selectivity and sensitivity. A novel approach using HPLC with coulometric array detection (3) shows promise for increased selectivity and sensitivity, but selectivity depends greatly on redox potential, resulting in inadequate sensitivity for some important phytoestrogens in complex matrices such as serum. The application of capillary electrophoresis-tandem mass spectrometry to the detection of phytoestrogens shows promise of improved sensitivity and specificity, but this technique has yet to be fully utilized due to difficulties in handling very small sample volumes. GC-MS methods provide needed selectivity and sensitivity for the analysis of phytoestrogens in biological matrices (4, 5) but require cumbersome derivatization steps for these nonvolatile compounds. HPLC-MS does not require derivatization, and therefore results in much higher throughput. Barnes et al. (6) developed an HPLC-MS/MS method for the detection of phytoestrogens in serum and urine; however, the method did not chromatographically resolve all of the major phytoestrogens and included only one internal standard.

Here we present an HPLC-MS/MS method that builds on the work by Barnes et al. (6) to result in a method with improved selectivity, sensitivity, and precision for the quantitative detection of phytoestrogens in human urine and serum. The method uses enzymatic deconjugation of the phytoestrogens followed by solid-phase extraction and reverse-phase HPLC to resolve the analytes. The phytoestrogens are detected using a Sciex API III heated nebulizer-atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (HN-APCI) interface coupled with MS/MS. This method allows for rapid detection of the major isoflavones and lignans in human serum and urine with limits of detection in the low ppb range. Selectivity of the method is insured by the combination of tandem mass spectrometry and chromatographic resolution. Internal standards for each of the analytes improved the precision of the assay.

Analytic Notes

Measures of urinary phthalates, urinary polyaromatic hydrocarbons, and urinary phytoestrogens are assessed in participants aged 6 years and over on a one-third sample. Use the special weights included in this data file when analyzing data. Read the "Special Sample Weights for this Dataset" information provided below before beginning analysis.

Mono-ethyl phthalate (URXMEP), Mono-benzyl phthalate (URXMZP), Mono-n-octyl phthalate (URXMOP), Mono-isononyl phthalate (URXMNP), and Mono-cyclohexyl phthalate (URXMCP):
NHANES recently learned that analytical standards used since 1999 and used for several metabolites were of insufficient purity. As a result of further investigation, a correction factor was applied to each value for the 5 metabolites.

Detection limits

For the seven phthalate metabolites and the six phytoestrogens, the detection limit was constant. In cases, where the result was below the limit of detection, the value for that variable is the detection limit divided by the square root of two. For the polyaromatic hydrocarbon analytes, the detection limit was variable. Two variables are provided for each of these analytes. The variable named URD_LC indicates whether the results was below the limit of detection. There are two values: "0" and "1"; "1" indicates that the result was below the limit of detection. The other variable named URX_ provides the analytic result for that analyte. In cases, where the result was below the limit of detection, the value for that variable is the detection limit divided by the square root of two.

Special Notes for this Dataset

The analysis of NHANES 1999–2000 laboratory data must be conducted with the key survey design and basic demographic variables. The NHANES 1999–2000 Household Questionnaire Data Files contain demographic data, health indicators, and other related information collected during household interviews. The Household Questionnaire and other data files may be linked to the laboratory data file using the unique survey participant identifier SEQN.

Special Sample Weights for this Dataset

Special sample weights are required to analyze these data properly. Measures of this urinary multi-analyte profile are assessed in participants aged 6 years and over on a randomly selected 1/3 subsample. Specific sample weights for this subsample are included in this data file and should be used when analyzing these data.

The dataset includes 2-year and 4-year subsample weights. The 4-year weights should be used if these 2001–2002 data are combined with 1999–2000 data. The 1999–2000 data files have been updated to include the subsample 4-year weights. The recommended procedure for variance estimation requires use of stratum and PSU variables (SDMVSTRA and SDMVPSU, respectively), which are included in the demographic data file for each data release. For further information, see the NHANES Analytic Guidelines, June 2004 version at: https://wwwn.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nhanes/nhanes_general_guidelines_june_04.pdf.
