N,N -Dimethylformamide is a liver toxin and the maximum concentration at the workplace (MAK value) of 5 ml/m3 was set using data from a two-year study in mice showing liver cell hypertrophy and single cell necrosis at the lowest concentration tested of 25 ml/m3. In this study, rats were less susceptible as regards the liver toxicity of N,N -dimethylformamide. Species differences in toxicokinetics are a plausible explanation for the higher toxicity in mice. As human metabolism of N,N -dimethylformamide is quantitatively similar to that of rats, their susceptibility is expected to be similar to that of rats. On the basis of the NOAEC (no observed adverse effect concentration) of 25 ml/m3 for rats, the MAK value of 5 ml/m3 is retained even taking into account the increased respiratory volume at the workplace. Peak Limitation Category II and the excursion factor of 2 are confirmed. The assignment of N,N -dimethylformamide to Pregnancy Risk Group B is retained. In an earlier assessment, it was concluded that exposure to a concentration of up to 1 ml/m3 is not expected to lead to developmental toxicity.

The following critical health effects were considered: effects on haem synthesis, behavioural toxicity/neurotoxicity, male fertility, developmental toxicity, nephrotoxicity, cardiovascular effects, geno-toxicity/carcinogenicity. Effects on neurobehaviour and nephrotoxicity have been described at blood levels around 300 µg Pb/l and higher. Therefore, a BLW of 200 µg Pb/l blood has been de-duced. As investigations of lead-exposed workers show no statistically significant increase in lymphocyte micronuclei at this blood level, it is reasonably expected that the proposed BLW will also minimize a lead-induced genotoxic/carcinogenic risk. For women a Biological Reference Value (BAR) of 70 μg Pb/l blood is proposed, based on the 95 th percentile of lead blood levels of the general population in Germany.

This method enables the selective detection of the vulcanisation accelerator 2‐mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) in urine. After adding a labelled internal standard (MBT‐d4), the samples are enzymatically hydrolysed to release free MBT from the conjugated MBT compounds. After online purification and enrichment, the analytes are separated from accompanying components by liquid chromatography and analysed using tandem mass spectrometry.

Die Substanz liegt unter Normalbedingungen in Form von leicht gelblichen Kristallen vor, die in Wasser schwer löslich sind. Die industrielle Herstellung erfolgt durch Umsetzung von Anilin, Schwefelkohlenstoff und Schwefel unter Hochdruck bei hohen Temperaturen von etwa 230 °C (Greim 1999; IARC 2018). MBT wird hauptsächlich als Vulkanisationsbeschleuniger in der Reifenproduktion und der Herstellung von technischen Gummiartikeln eingesetzt. Zusätzlich kommen das Zinksalz des Mercaptobenzothiazols sowie die Sulfenamide, eine vom MBT ausgehende Verbindungsklasse, als mögliche Quelle für MBT in Frage. So ist MBT potentiell in vielen täglichen Gebrauchsgegenständen zu finden, wie z.
