Gestational Mercury Vapor Exposure and Diet Contribute to Mercury Accumulation in Neonatal Rats

Exposure of pregnant Long-Evans rats to elemental mercury (Hg(0)) vapor resulted in a significant accumulation of Hg in tissues of neonates. Because elevated Hg in neonatal tissues may adversely affect growth and development, we were interested in how rapidly Hg was eliminated from neonatal tissues....
