"The importance of mercury determination and speciation to the health of the general population ",
Global NEST: The International Journal 4 (2-3) : 107-125 (Nov 2002)

Keywords	Mercury, toxicokinetics, health, speciation, Mediterranean countries
Abstract	It is well known that the toxicokinetics (i.e. absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion) of mercury is highly dependent on the form of mercury to which a receptor has been exposed. The aim of this paper is to summarize the available health effects information for mercury and mercury compounds in the international scientific literature (1940-2003) and to point to the need for increased Hg control of water and food, including mercury speciation, especially in Mediterranean countries.
