The working group „Analyses in Biological Materials“ of the Permanent Senate Commission for the Investigation of Health Hazards of Chemical Compounds in the Work Area verified the present biomonitoring method. This procedure describes a method for the determination of beryllium in urine by means of atomic absorption spectrometry using the graphite furnace technique with a pyrolytically coated graphite tube and Zeeman background correction. The acidified samples are homogenised and injected into the graphite tube without further sample preparation using an autosampler. Magnesium nitrate is used as a matrix modifier. After drying, pyrolysis and atomisation, the absorbance is measured at 234.9 nm. The beryllium concentration is quantified using either a calibration curve (method I) or the standard addition method (method II). The method was extensively validated and the reliability data were confirmed by independent laboratories, which have established and cross‐checked the whole procedure.

Exposure to air pollution during physical exercise is a health issue because fine particulate matter (dimension < 10 μm; PM 10 ) includes several inhalable toxic metals. Body metal changes in athletes according to air pollution are poorly known. Urinary concentrations of 15 metals: beryllium (Be 9 ), aluminum (Al 27 ), vanadium (V 51 ), chromium (Cr 51 + Cr 52 ), manganese (Mn 55 ), cobalt (Co 59 ), nickel (Ni 61 ), copper (Cu 63 ), zinc (Zn 61 ), arsenic (As 75 ), selenium (Se 82 ), cadmium (Cd 111 + Cd 112 ), thallium (Tl 125 ), lead (Pb 207 ), and uranium (U 238 ) were measured before and after ten 2-h training sessions in 8 non-professional Italian American-football players (18–28 years old, body mass index 24.2–33.6 kg/m 2 ). Collectively, post-training sessions, urinary concentrations of As, Cd, Co, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Se, Tl, and Zn were higher than pre-training sessions; Al, Be, Cr, and U did not change; conversely, V decreased. Subdividing training sessions according to air PM 10 levels: low (< 20 μg/m 3 ), medium (20–40 μg/m 3 ), and high (> 40 μg/m 3 ), pre-session and post-session urinary concentrations of Be, Cd, Cu, and Tl were significantly higher ( p < 0.05) in more polluted days, whereas V concentrations were lower ( p < 0.001). All the remaining metals were unaffected. We first showed that PM 10 levels modulate urinary excretion of some toxic metals suggesting an effect of air pollution. The effects of toxic metals inhaled by athletes exercising in polluted air need further studies.
