[Gas chromatographic method of determining styrene in blood (the head-space method)]

A gas-chromatographic method (Head Space) was elaborated - analysis of blood for styrene content. The method is fast and accurate. Sensitivity - I microgram/ml-1 and analytical capacity 88%. The pretreatment of the sample is avoided as well as the reagents consumption. The method is convenient for serial analyses and could be applied in the determination and assessment of the exposure extent among workers with styrene and its polymers.
