Ethyleneoxide (EO), a genotoxic industrial chemical and sterilant, forms covalent adducts with DNA and also with nucleophilic amino acids in proteins. The adduct with N-terminal valine in globin [N-(2-hydroxyethyl)valine (HEV)] has been used in biomonitoring of cumulative exposures to EO. Here we studied in rats the fate of EO-adducted N-termini of globin after life termination of the erythrocytes
Method for analyzing adducts in a fluid and/or a solid material suspected of containing the adducts by bringing the material in contact with an isothiocyanate reagent containing a fluorescent. The reagent do not have the isothiocyanate group directly bound to an unsubstituted phenyl or pentafluorophenyl group. A method for manufacturing a standard material for use in the analyzing method, a standard material obtainable by this manufacturing method. Compounds suitable for use as standard material and use of the standard material, and a container for analyzing the adducts are also disclosed. A method for analyzing hazardous substances, a kit including standard material or a compound set out above, an apparatus for performing the analyzing method, and a computer program stored on a data carrier for performing the analyzing method or the manufacturing method are also disclosed.
