In radioreagent methods, the radioactive product of the reaction between the substance to be determined and a radioactive reagent is separated by various methods, such as precipitation or liquid-liquid extraction. For example, Cl , Br or 1 in concentrations down to 0.5 pg/1 can be determined by addition of an excess of phe-nylmercury nitrate labelled with ° Hg. The complexes formed with the halide ions are extracted into benzene, whereas the phenylmercury nitrate stays in the aqueous phase. From the difference between the activities in the aqueous phase before and...

A thermographic material with only one heat-sensitive component is prepared by reaction of an organometallic compound such as phenylmercury(II) nitrate with a thiourea derivative.230 The product is ball milled and coated in a binder such as poly(vinyl acetate). Other organometallic compounds disclosed are those of bismuth, tin, gallium and germanium combined with a variety of sulfur-containing compounds such as thioamides and xanthates. 

In a study of six mercury compounds, mercury chloride, mercury nitrate, sodium ethylmercurithi-osalicylate, methyl mercury chloride, mercury acetate and phenylmercury acetate in MDCK cells, LLC-PKl cells and human primary proximal tubular cells (hPTC) and non-renal cell lines (SAOS and Hep G2) it was found that all mercury compounds were toxic to all cell types as evidenced by neutral red uptake, thymidine incorporation and the MTT assay [189]. However, sodium ethylmercurithiosalicylate, methyl mercury chloride and phenylmercury acetate were one order of magnitude more toxic than the other compounds. In addition the GSH synthesis inhibitor L-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) potentiated the toxicity of all mercury compounds [189]. In a study using primary rabbit proximal tubular cells it was also shown that methyl mercury chloride is more toxic than mercury chloride [190]. Differences in the extent and rate of metal uptake were also evident. Maximum cellular uptake of Hg " occurred within 6-24 hr after exposure and was not concentration-dependent, whereas maximum uptake of CHgHg" occurred within 3 hr of exposure and was concentration- dependent [190]. 

Chloride in aqueous solutions is readily converted to phenylmercury(II)chloride by treatment with phenylmercury(II)nitrate at pH 1.5 and the covalently bound chloride can be quantitatively extracted into chloroform Before reproducible peaks could be achieved, it was necessary to make four injections, because there was some absorption on the stationary phase ... 

Organic Mercury. Case report studies suggest that dermal exposure to methylmercury or phenylmercury in humans can cause rashes and blisters on the skin (Hunter et al. 1940 Morris 1960). A 33-year-old male worker exposed to methylmercury nitrate dust for 2 years developed bums and blisters on his forearm (Hunter et al. 1940). These effects healed within 9 days. Sensitivity to phenylmercuric salts is shown by individuals who developed itchy, pruritic, papular eruptions or rashes on their skin following acute dermal exposure (Morris 1960). A 54-year-old woman with a family history of atopy was found to display erythema (at 30 minutes postexposure) and urticaria (at 60 minutes) when treated topically with a 0.01% solution of phenylmercuric acetate (Torresani et al. 1993). This positive reaction was associated with aggravation of facial edema and an attack of bronchospasm. The woman, who was a farmer, was believed to have been previously exposed to phenylmercuric acetate during contact with pesticides and herbicides used on farm crops. 

Human activities have resulted in the release of a wide variety of both inorganic and organic forms of mercury. The electrical industry, chloro-alkali industry, and the burning of fossil fuels (coal, petroleum, etc.) release elemental mercury into the atmosphere. Metallic mercury has also been released directly to fresh water by chloro-alkali plants, and both phenylmer-cuiy and methylmercury compounds have been released into fresh and sea water -phenylmercury by the wood paper-pulp industry, particularly in Sweden, and methyl-mercury by chemical manufacturers in Japan. Important mercury compounds which also may be released into the environment include mercury(II) oxide, mercury(II) sulfide (cinnabar), mercury chlorides, mer-cury(II) bromide, mercury(II) iodine, mer-cury(II) cyanide, mercury(II) thiocyanate, mercury(II) acetate, mercury nitrates, mercury sulfates, mercury(II) amidochloride monoalkyl- and monoarylmercury(II) halides, borates and nitrates dialkylmercury compounds like dimethylmercury, alkoxyal-kylmercury compounds or diphenylmercury (Simon and Wiihl-Couturier 2002) (for quantities involved, see Section 17.4).
