Absorption of Methylmercury Compounds From Rat Intestine

Toxicology Letters, 1990
Intestinal absorption of methylmercury complexed with non-protein sulfhydryl compounds (NPSHs) as occurs in bile was studied by means of direct injection of mercury compounds into ligated intestinal segments of rats. The extent of absorption of methylmercury-cysteinylglycine (MM-CysGly) was similar to that of methylmercury-cysteine (MM-Cys) and 1.5 ...

Lipophilic Compounds in Garlic Decrease the Toxicity of Methylmercury by Forming Sulfur Adducts

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2021
Garlic (Allium sativum L.) contains numerous sulfur compounds. We have previously found that reactive sulfur species such as glutathione persulfide, glutathione polysulfide, protein-bound persulfides, and hydrogen sulfide can bind to methylmercury to give bismethylmercury sulfide, which is less toxic than methylmercury.

Compound Specific Stable Isotope Determination of Methylmercury in Contaminated Soil

Science of the Total Environment, 2018
Rice is one of the main sources of methylmercury (MeHg) to humans, and soil is the main source of MeHg to rice grains. Determining the Hg isotope composition in environmental samples is a good way of characterizing sources of Hg pollution and investigating environmental processes.

Communication. Novel methods for derivatization of mercury(II) and methylmercury(II) compounds for analysis

open access: yesThe Analyst, 1992
Two novel and convenient methods for obtaining volatile mercury and methylmercury species for analysis that allows non-volatile analyte solutions to be identified by element-specific and species-selective techniques are described. Non-volatile aqueous solutions of mercury(II) and/or methylmercury(II) compounds are converted into volatile forms ...

Regeneration in Two Freshwater Planarian Species Exposed to Methylmercury Compounds

Russian Journal of Developmental Biology, 2008
The regeneration rate was studied by the morphometric method in planarians Polycelis tenuis and Dugesia lugubris after different periods of exposure on food substrates with high (0.30-0.50 mg/kg wet weight) and low (0.02-0.07 mg/kg) concentration of methylmercury compounds.

A Review of the Toxicity of Methylmercury Compounds With Application to Occupational Exposures Associated With Laboratory Uses

Environmental Research, 1983
The toxicological and physicochemical properties of methylmercury compounds are reviewed together in an attempt to foster a conceptual synthesis between the biochemistry and toxicity of these compounds. Where insights from chemical analysis bear on conclusions derivable from earlier toxicology studies, these studies have in some instances been ...
