OECD SIDS o-<strong>TOLUIDINE</strong><br />
3. ENVIRONMENTAL FATE AND PATHWAYS ID: <strong>95</strong>-<strong>53</strong>-4<br />
DATE: 07.01.2005<br />
- GC/MS<br />
Result : Toluidine (isomers not specified, but o-toluidine likely to be present) was<br />
detected as a component of coal oil at a concentration of 135 mg/kg.<br />
Toluidine was not present in the 3 gasifier tars investigated.<br />
Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions<br />
Flag : Critical study for SIDS endpoint<br />
07.06.2004 (47)<br />
Type of measurement : other: concentration in fuel<br />
Media : other: gasolines and aqueous extracts of gasolines<br />
Concentration :<br />
Method : HPLC/UV and HPLC/MS<br />
Result : o-Toludine is present in 77 % of [in total] 62 Swiss and 3 US gasoline<br />
samples (average 6.1 mg/l) and in their aqueous extracts (average 0.47<br />
mg/l)<br />

Type of measurement : background concentration<br />
Media : surface water<br />
Concentration :<br />
Method : GC quantification, MS identification<br />
Result : o-Toluidine was found in 3 of of 9 samples. The highest value occurred in<br />
the river Alster (ca. 1 µg/l).<br />
Test condition : - 9 samples of environmental waters in Northern Germany<br />
- Fresh samples were anaylsed<br />
- GC quantification after derivatisation with trifluoroacetic acid anhydride<br />
- MS identification<br />

Type of measurement : background concentration<br />
Media : surface water<br />
Concentration :<br />
Method : GC, photometry<br />
Method : - GC according to 1980 publication of the authors<br />
- Colorimetric determination of total amines content as azo compounds by<br />
coupling with N-(1-naphthyl)-ethylenediamine. Absorbance was read at 555<br />
nm. Practical limit of detectability 0.02-0.5 µg/l<br />
- Sampling in 1979, water including sediments<br />
Remark : In the Netherlands o-toluidin was measured in the river Rhine and in two of<br />
it's tributaries in 1979; GC-analysis, detection limit: 0.02 ug/l<br />
