Photodemethylation of methylmercury in Eastern Canadian Arctic thaw pond and lake ecosystems
(2016-04-05)
Permafrost thaw ponds of the warming Eastern Canadian Arctic are major landscape constituents and often display high levels of methylmercury (MeHg). We examined photodegradation potentials in high-dissolved organic matter ...
High methylmercury in Arctic and subarctic ponds is related to nutrient levels in the warming eastern Canadian Arctic
(2015-06)
Permafrost thaw ponds are ubiquitous in the eastern
Canadian Arctic, yet little information exists on their potential as
sources of methylmercury (MeHg) to freshwaters. They are
microbially active and conducive to ...
Cooking and co-ingested polyphenols reduce in vitro methylmercury bioaccessibility from fish and may alter exposure in humans
MeHg bioaccessibility is reduced by food preparation
(Elsevier, 2017-10-31)
Fish consumption is a major pathway for mercury exposure in humans. Current guidelines and risk assessments assume that 100% of methylmercury (MeHg) in fish is absorbed by the human body after ingestion. However, a growing ...
