Sumario: | Reported herein is the development of an analytical method for the detection of four oxidative stress biomarkers in wastewater using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) and solid phase extraction (SPE). The following four biomarkers of oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation have been investigated: hydroxynonenal–mercapturic acid (HNE-MA), 8-iso-prostglandin F2beta (8-iso-PGF(2β)), 8-nitroguanine (8-NO(2)Gua) and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). The method showed very good performance: accuracy (> 87%), precision (> 90%), method quantification limits (1.3–3.0 ng L(−1)) and biomarker stability in wastewater in the case of HNE-MA, 8-OHdG and 8-iso-PGF(2β). In contrast, 8-NO(2)Gua was found to be less stable in wastewater, which affected its method performance: accuracy (> 63%), precision (> 91%) and method quantification limits (85.3 ng L(−1)). Application of the developed method resulted in, for the first time, HNE-MA being successfully observed and quantified within wastewater over a study period of a week (displayed average daily loads per capita of 48.9 ± 4.1 mg/1000/people/day). 8-iso-PGF(2β) was detected with good intensity but could not be quantified due to co-elution with other isomers. 8-OHdG was detected, albeit at < MQL. This study demonstrates the potential for expanding on the possible endogenous biomarkers of health used in urban water fingerprinting to aid in measuring health in near-real time on a community-wide scale.
