Oxidative stress profiles in brain point out a higher susceptibility of fish to waterborne divalent mercury compared to dietary organic mercury

This study examines, for the first time, the neurotoxicity of Hg(II) and MeHg in fish (Diplodus sargus) in a time-course comparative perspective and considering realistic exposure levels and routes. Both forms followed an identical time-variation pattern of accumulation in the brain, but dietary MeH...
