Abstract To evaluate prenatal exposure to quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) using meconium analysis and assess associations with newborn birthweight. We analyzed meconium from 74 mother-infant dyads in two New York City public hospitals for 20 QACs using UPLC-MS. Principal component analysis (PCA) identified exposure patterns, and logistic regression assessed associations between PCA scores and birthweight at or below the 25th percentile, adjusting for maternal education and other factors.
