The distribution pattern of phthalate metabolites (PMs) in human blood was investigated in this study. It was found that mono methyl phthalate, mono (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, and mono butyl phthalate were the predominant PMs in both serum and whole blood samples. The mean serum concentrations of PMs were higher in females than males.
Presence of phthalate metabolites (PMs) in human serum has been well documented. However, the distribution pattern of PMs in different human blood matrixes remains not well known. To investigate this, paired serum and whole blood samples were collected from 145 adults (76 males and 69 females) in Quzhou, China, and analyzed for nine PMs in this study. All PMs had high detection frequencies (> 70%) in human serum and whole blood, except mono benzyl phthalate. Total concentrations of detected PMs in serum and whole blood were 0.70-61 ng/mL (mean 12 ng/mL) and 1.6-33 ng/mL (7.5 ng/mL), respectively. Mono methyl phthalate (MMP), mono (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, and mono butyl phthalate were consistently the predominant PMs in human serum and whole blood, with the mean concentrations of 3.4 and 2.0 ng/mL, 3.3 and 2.1 ng/mL, and 2.8 and 1.8 ng/mL, respectively. Females had higher mean serum concentrations of PMs, except MBP, than males. Youngest age group (20-30 years) consistently had the lowest mean whole blood levels of all PMs. For the first time, the distribution pattern of PMs in human blood was evaluated based on the calculated partitioning coefficient (K-p) between serum and whole blood. MMP had the highest mean K-p value (1.6; 10th-90th percentile: 1.0-2.2), while mono (2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate had the lowest mean Kp value (0.63; 10th-90th percentile: 0.25-1.3). These results help better understand the occurrence of PMs in human blood.
