摘要: Abstract Methylmercury hydroxide was administered subcutaneously to pregnant and non-pregnant female rats at doses of 0, 5, 10, 20 40 mg Hg/kg. Seven days later mercury concentrations in the brains adults fetuses were measured. Mercury brain fetus least twice that rats. Increased may explain reports greater susceptibility methylmercury poisoning.
