| Abstract: | BackgroundHuman biomonitoring studies of trace elements in biological fluids are mostly limited to a certain number of elements or biological materials. In this study, we describe the significant extension of a biomonitoring to 73 elements being present in concentration ranges from ng/L to g/L in clinically relevant specimens such as blood, serum, erythrocytes and urine.MethodsThe samples were collected from 102 occupationally non-exposed inhabitants of northern Germany. The elements were determined either by inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry (ICP-MS/MS) in the low concentration range or by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) for essential trace elements and electrolytes.ResultsMean values and selected percentiles of element concentrations are presented for all sample materials. From the results, we calculated the distribution of elements between plasma and blood cells. Application of ICP-MS/MS improves selectivity and accuracy in the determination of elements that are strongly spectrally interfered, such as Cr, Ge, Pd or Ti in blood samples.ConclusionsThis publication provides very valuable information for occupational or environmental hygienists, toxicologists and clinical chemists due to the particularly high number of determined elements and presented concentration ranges. |
