Biogeochemistry of mercury in Amazonian Dark Earths (ADEs) of the Brazilian Amazon [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Ciência do SoloAmazonian Dark Earths (ADEs), despite being a relatively minor part of Amazonian soils, are traditional choices for agricultural production by local people, which increases the potential for remobilization of Hg from these soils to aquatic environments ...

Digestion of Food Samples for Total Mercury Determination
Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 1985 Abstract A method of digestion by using a mixture of hydrochloric, nitric, and sulfuric acids has been developed for the determination of total mercury in a wide range of food samples. Good recoveries of mercury were obtained from NBS (National Bureau of Standards) Albacore Tuna and from food samples spiked with inorganic mercury.

Total Mercury Released to the Environment by Human Activities
Environmental Science & Technology, 2017 We estimate that a cumulative total of 1540 (1060-2800) Gg (gigagrams, 109 grams or thousand tonnes) of mercury (Hg) have been released by human activities up to 2010, 73% of which was released after 1850. Of this liberated Hg, 470 Gg were emitted directly into the atmosphere, and 74% of the air emissions were elemental Hg.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.
