Photolytic degradation of methylmercury enhanced by binding to natural organic ligands
Monomethylmercury is a neurotoxin that poses significant risks to human health1 due to its bioaccumulation in food webs. Sunlight degradation to inorganic mercury is an important component of the mercury cycle that maintains methylmercury at low concentrations in natural waters. Rates of photodecomp...
