Mercury and selenium concentrations and their interrelations in organs from dental staff and the general population / Magnus Nylander, Jan Weiner

Sumario: Mercury an selenium concentrations were determined by radiochemical neutron activation analysis in samples from the pituitary glands, occipital cortices, renal cortices, abdominal muscles, and thyroid glands of cadavers. Samples were retrieved from dental staff occupationally exposed to Hg and from the general population. The main purpose of the present work was to further elucidate the relation between Hg and Se concentrations in several tissues from subjects with varying exposure to mercury vapour
