ABSTRACT
1,3-Diphenylguanidine (DPG), 1,3-di-o-tolylguanidine (DTG), and 1,2,3-triphenylguanidine (TPG) are synthetic chemicals widely used in rubber and other polymers. Nevertheless, limited information is available on their occurrence in indoor dust. We measured these chemicals in 332 dust samples collected from 11 countries. DPG, DTG, and TPG were found in 100%, 62%, and 76% of the house dust samples, at median concentrations of 140, 2.3, and 0.9 ng/g, respectively. The sum concentrations of DPG and its analogues varied among the countries in the following decreasing order Japan (median 1300 ng/g) > Greece (940) > South Korea (560) > Saudi Arabia (440) > the United States (250) > Kuwait (160) > Romania (140) > Vietnam (120) > Colombia (100) > Pakistan (33) > India (26). DPG accounted for ≥87% of the sum concentrations of the three compounds in all countries. DPG, DTG, and TPG exhibited significant correlations (r 0.35-0.73; p < 0.001). Elevated concentrations of DPG were found in dust from certain microenvironments (e.g., offices and cars). Human exposure to DPG through dust ingestion were in the ranges 0.07-4.40, 0.09-5.20, 0.03-1.70, 0.02-1.04, and 0.01-0.87 ng/kg body weight (BW)/day for infants, toddlers, children, teenagers, and adults, respectively.
