Bioaccumulation of Total and Methyl Mercury by Arthropods

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2008
Three arthropods, Locusta migratoria manilensis, Acrida chinensis, and Paraten-odera sinensis were selected to study the bioaccumulation of total and methyl mercury. Concentrations of total mercury in the tissues of Locusta migratoria manilensis and Acrida chinensis were 0.013-0.154 and 0.009-0.138 mg/kg, respectively, while those of methylmercury were

Determination of total mercury in sediments and soils

The Analyst, 1972
A highly sensitive and precise procedure has been developed for the quantitative determination of total mercury in sediments and soils. Undried samples are treated with concentrated nitric and sulphuric acids, potassium permanganate and potassium persulphate in order to digest and oxidise all forms of mercury to mercury (II) ions, which are ...

Total Mercury, Inorganic Mercury and Methyl Mercury Determination in Red Wine

Food Analytical Methods, 2011
This study deals with the development of a method for total Hg, inorganic Hg and methylmercury (MeHg) determination in red wine by using flow injection-cold vapour generation–inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (FI-CVG-ICP-MS) and gas chromatography-ICP-MS (GC-ICP-MS). For Hg speciation analysis, a derivatization step was carried out using a 1%

Total mercury, organic mercury and mercury fractionation in soil profiles from the Almadén mercury mine area

Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts, 2014
Soil profiles located in the mining district of Almadén were investigated for total Hg, organic Hg fraction and Hg distribution by selective sequential extraction. A four-step sequential extraction method (labile Hg species, humic and fulvic complexes, elemental Hg and bound to crystalline oxides and Hg sulfide and refractory species) was performed ...

The estimation of total mercury in water

Water Research, 1979
Abstract Methods have been considered for the estimation of total mercury in samples of drinking water, surface water and sewage effluent. Those using chemical oxidation procedures for pre-treatment display limitations. Pretreatment by photolysis of water samples results in improved reliability and efficiency.
