Disease relevance of NSC4883

About 1300 products brought in by consecutive formaldehyde-sensitive eczema patients during a 2-year period were tested with both the chromotropic acid test and the acetylacetone test [1].

High impact information on NSC4883

We evaluated two chemical methods for quantifying mannitol in serum, based on the oxidation of mannitol by periodate, and measurement of the formaldehyde formed with chromotropic acid (colorimetry) or acetylacetone (fluorometry) [2].
Active sampling and analysis methods including detector tubes, the impinger/chromotropic acid method, the impinger/pararosaniline method, and the CEA continuous monitor are reviewed as to advantages and limitations for residential sampling [3].
Analysis was via the chromotropic acid method recommended by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. It was found that 44% of all breathing zone samples were greater than the 1.0 ppm ceiling value for occupational exposure recently recommended by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists [4].
