Abstract:<\/strong> Glyphosate-based herbicides are the most widely used pesticides in the world; however, the toxicity of glyphosate (GlyP) toward humans, especially its carcinogenicity, is controversial. The aim of this work was to validate a rapid assay for measuring GlyP and its metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) in urine for human biomonitoring. The analytes were purified via solid-phase extraction in the presence of isotopically labeled internal standards. An LC-MS\/MS assay was developed using a column with a novel hybrid stationary phase combined with anion exchange and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography. Detection and quantification were performed using negative electrospray ionization in a hybrid triple quadrupole\/linear ion trap mass spectrometer. The retention times for AMPA and GlyP were 1.44 and 7.24 min, respectively. Calibration curves showed a linear dynamic range of up to 40 \u00b5g\/L, inter- and intra-run precisions <7.5%, and accuracies within 10% of the theoretical concentrations. The limits of quantification were 0.1 \u00b5g\/L and 0.5 \u00b5g\/L for GlyP and AMPA, respectively. The matrix effect bias was controlled using internal standards. Successful participation in external quality assurance exercises strengthens the validity of the method. The assay was applied to the measurement of GlyP and AMPA in the urine of 9 urban residents, 26 rural residents, and 12 agricultural workers; while AMPA was mostly not quantifiable, the median GlyP values were 0.1 and 0.34 \u00b5g\/L in rural residents and workers, respectively. The assay is useful to assess GlyP and AMPA in human urine following different exposure scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
