EFSA was asked by the European Commission to consider new developments regarding
inorganic mercury and methylmercury toxicity and evaluate whether the Joint FAO/WHO …

Both anthropogenic and natural sources are responsible for the release of mercury (Hg) in
the environment. Mercury accumulation in the environment has been a topic of continuing …

Mercury has been measured by using Cold Vapor-Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry in
coastal sediments of the Persian Gulf (Bandar Abbas region). The mean concentration of the …

This review covers a relatively mature area of atomic spectrometry, hence there are fewer
new developments than in other research fields. The review should be read in conjunction …

An analytical method for simple and rapid determination of methylmercury in sediment and
organism samples is described. The proposed method employs the oxygen combustion …

Total mercury and mercury species (methylmercury-MeHg, inorganic mercury–Hg2+) were
determined in the aquatic ecosystem Záhlinice (Czech Republic). Four tissues (muscle …

Multivariate partial least-squares (PLS) calibration models have been developed for the
spatial and seasonal simultaneous monitoring of 14 trace elements (Al, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu …

Long term (January 2005–January 2008) monitoring of sediments was used to investigate
metal pollution in the estuary of the Nerbioi–Ibaizabal River (Bilbao, Basque Country) …

In order to evaluate effects of exposure to mercury (tHg) and methylmercury (MeHg) of Hong
Kong residents via consumption of fish, total and bioaccessible concentrations of tHg and …

A procedure for the extraction and determination of methyl mercury and mercury (II) in fish
muscle tissues and sediment samples is presented. The procedure involves extraction with …
