To develop a simple, validated method for identifying and quantifying 1,3-butadiene (BD) in human blood by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and head-space gas chromatography (HS-GC). BD was identified by GC-MS and HS-GC, and quantified by HS-GC. The method showed that BD had a good linearity from 50 to 500 microg/mL (r > 0.99). The limits of detection and quantification were 10 microg/mL and 50 microg/mL, respectively. Both the intra-day precision and inter-day precision were < 6.08%, and the accuracy was 96.98%-103.81%. The method was applied to an actual case, and the concentration of BD in the case was 242 microg/mL in human blood. This simple method is found to be useful for the routine forensic analysis of acute exposure to BD.

D013696	Temperature	The property of objects that determines the direction of heat flow when they are placed in direct thermal contact. The temperature is the energy of microscopic motions (vibrational and translational) of the particles of atoms.	Temperatures
D015203	Reproducibility of Results	The statistical reproducibility of measurements (often in a clinical context), including the testing of instrumentation or techniques to obtain reproducible results. The concept includes reproducibility of physiological measurements, which may be used to develop rules to assess probability or prognosis, or response to a stimulus; reproducibility of occurrence of a condition; and reproducibility of experimental results.
