The role of antibiotic-mercury interactions in wetlands: a review of methylation processes and ecological implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science
Antibiotics and Hg, as common environmental contaminants, are prevalent in different environmental media, including water and soil. Their collective pollution presents potential hazards to ecosystems and human health.

Determination of methylmercury in biological samples by semiautomated headspace analysis

open access: yes, 1985
Gas-liquid distribution coefficients of methylmercury halides dissolved in water or benzene have been assessed by using a headspace injection system coupled to a gas chromatograph-microwave-induced plasma system.

Global mercury dataset with predicted methylmercury concentrations in seafoods during 1995–2022

open access: yesScientific Data
Mercury exposure poses significant threats to human health, particularly in its organic form, methylmercury (MeHg). Diet is the main pathway for human MeHg exposure, especially through seafood consumption.

Comparison of neurons derived from mouse P19, rat PC12 and human SH-SY5Y cells in the assessment of chemical- and toxin-induced neurotoxicity

open access: yesBMC Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2017
Background Exposure to chemicals might be toxic to the developing brain. There is a need for simple and robust in vitro cellular models for evaluation of chemical-induced neurotoxicity as a complement to traditional studies on animals.

Terrestrial organic matter input causes dual effects on methylmercury accumulation in coastal planktonic food webs

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Methylmercury (MeHg) accumulation in aquatic food webs is a key pathway for human exposure. We examined how terrestrially derived organic matter (tOM) influences MeHg bioaccumulation in coastal planktonic food webs by measuring MeHg bioaccumulation ...

Conventional Chromatographic Techniques and Biosensors for Mercury Speciation in Seafood: A Systematic Review

open access: yesFoods
Mercury (Hg) is of significant concern due to its toxicity, which strongly depends on its chemical forms, and organic mercury compounds, particularly methylmercury (MeHg), are considered the most toxic species.
