TL;DR: In this article, the authors used 50 nm polystyrene nanoparticles with distinct surface functionalization (pristine, PS-Plain, carboxylic and amino PS-NH2) alone or combined with the metals arsenic (As) and methylmercury (MeHg), which possess an environmental risk to marine life.

Neurobehavioral and immune-toxic impairments induced by organic methyl mercury dietary exposure in Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus.
TL;DR: The results showed that dietary MeHg induced significant alterations in O. niloticus behavior, the swimming behavior was significantly decreased, while scratching, biting, and fin tugging behaviors were significantly augmented; chasing, mouth pushing, and butting behaviors were significant increased in all the exposed groups.

Developmental changes in the biliary excretion of methylmercury and glutathione.
TL;DR: The long half-time for methylmercury in the neonatal rats is explained by the Neonatal liver's inability to secrete the toxin into bile, which in adults is the main route of elimination.
Uptake of Methyl Mercuric Chloride and Mercuric Chloride by Trout: A Study of Uptake Pathways into the Whole Animal and Uptake by Erythrocytes in vitro
TL;DR: In vitro experiments using radioactive mercurials demonstrated high affinity of methyl mercury for red cells (up to 90% was bound to red cells in 40 min) as discussed by the authors, but only 9% of inorganic mercury was taken up by red cells, but this percentage was increased up to 65% if the cells were washed and suspended in Ringer solution prior to incubation with mercury.
Methyl mercury induced visual deficits in rainbow trout
TL;DR: The results suggest that methyl mercury (MEHG) impaired both the scotopic and photopic mechanisms of MEHG-treated rainbow trout.
Review of possible paths for abiotic methylation of mercury(II) in the aquatic environment
TL;DR: A review of potential abiotic methylation of inorganic mercury by methylcobalamin, methyltin compounds, and humic matter is presented in this paper, where it is shown that Humic Matter is the most promising environmental methylating agent for several reasons.
Mercury-cycling in surface waters and in the atmosphere Species analysis for the investigation of transformation and transport properties of mercury
TL;DR: In this article, a length profile has been measured for mercury and methylmercury (CH3Hg+) from Obristvi, Czech Republic, to the German bight.
