General description

DL-Mandelic acid is an aromatic hydrocarbon metabolite of styrene.

Application

DL-Mandelic acid may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of DL-mandelic acid in:
  • Human urine samples by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) equipped with ultraviolet (UV) detector.
  • Rat urine samples by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) with selected ion monitoring (SIM) detection.

Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Occupational exposure to styrene was studied in nine workers of a hand lamination plant in Bohemia. Personal dosimeters were used to monitor the styrene workplace exposure, and the levels of styrene in blood and mandelic acid in urine were measured.
