From the German link translated by google:

Stress in human urine
To clarify whether Glyophosatbelastungen are only in individuals with
direct contact with contaminated feed or glyphosate preparations
prove, or whether other population groups are subject to risks,
employees, journalists and lawyers of Berlin were examined (*) that do
not deal with glyphosate preparations had. In all urine samples from
these groups in December 2011, glyphosate was detected. The values
ranged from 0.5 to 2 ng per ml urine glyphosate (drinking water limit:
0.1 ng / ml). None of the examinees had direct contact with
agriculture.


(*) The address of the examining university laboratories, the
analytical values ​​and the evaluation of the analytical method are
the editors. Because of not inconsiderable pressure from
representatives of the agrochemical and the fear that the work of the
laboratory could be debilitating to the entire series analysis will be
published until later this year. It is currently the glyphosate
analysis in several laboratories in Germany, Switzerland and Austria
up to standard and in the stress magnitudes representative of animals,
people can find food and feed. Because so far there is not even
possible to run their own stress or that of their livestock to analyze
a calibrated standard.
