Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Interpretation of urine results used to assess chemical exposure with emphasis on creatinine adjustments: a review

Notes: Sumario: This paper reviews the process of elimination of creatinine (CRE), and the limitations presented when using it to express urine concentrations. This literature review leads to three conclusions: (1) CRE excretion is subject to wide fluctuations due to specific internal and external factors; (2) the use of CRE to correct chemical concentrations in urine will not necessarily improve the correlation to the exposure dose for all chemicals; and (3) other means of expressing urine concentration may offer greater accuracy towards estimating individually adsorbed doseRelated records: En: American Industrial Hygiene Association journal. - Fairfax, Virginia. - Vol. 54, nº 10, October 1993 ; p. 615-627Materia / lugar / evento: Higiene industrial Contaminantes químicos Análisis clínicos Creatinina Factores de riesgo Reacciones químicas Reacciones metabólicas Métodos de análisis Otros autores: Lowry, Larry K.
