Reversed-Phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Separation of Inorganic Mercury And Methylmercury Driven By Their Different Coordination Chemistry Towards Thiols

Since mercuric mercury (Hg{sup 2+}) and methylmercury (CH{sub 3}Hg{sup +}) display different toxicological properties in mammals, methods for their quantification in dietary items must be available. Employing Hg-specific detection, we have developed a rapid, isocratic, and affordable RP-HPLC separat...
