摘要
Several industrial sites in Germany and a mining area in Slovenia were studied for the occurrence of organic mercury compounds. These;sites included a former fungicide plant, a chlor alkali plant, an acetaldehyde plant, and a warehouse for phenyl-mercury chloride-treated seeds. Besides methylmercury compounds, which have been found at all the above-mentioned locations, various organomercury species have been detected. Among them were ethylmercury, methoxyethylmercury and phenylmercury compounds. In addition, three organomercury species were found that have not been identified yet. Analyses were carried out by a newly developed HPLC/AFS method, which allows the determination of CH3Hg+ and organomercury species other than methylmercury.
