摘要: Exposure of human to parabens (commonly used preservatives) is inevitable due to their extensively applied in numerous consumer products. Thus, a reliable noninvasive matrix reflecting long-term exposure to parabens is essential for human biomonitoring study. Human nails are potentially a valuable alternative for measuring intergrated exposure to parabens. In this work, we collected 100 paired nail and urine samples from university students in Nanjing, China, and measured simultaneously for six parent parabens and four metabolites. Meth-ylparaben (MeP), ethylparaben (EtP), and propylparaben (PrP) were three predominant paraben analogue in both matrices, with the median concentrations being 12.9, 0.753, and 3.42 ng/mL in urine, and 1540, 154, and 961 ng/g in nail, respectively, while 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HB) and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-DHB) were the most abundant metabolites (median values of 143 and 35.9 ng/mL, respectively) in urine. Gender -related analysis suggested that females exposed to more higher parabens than males. Significantly positive correlations were found between levels of MeP, PrP, EtP, and OH-MeP (r = 0.54-0.62, p < 0.01) in paired urine and nail samples. Our result here suggests that human nails, as an emerging biospecimen, are a potentially valuable biological matrix to evaluate human long-term exposure to parabens.
