TLDR
Polyurethane foam as a novel support for immobilization of horseradish peroxidase has been used for the development of a test technique for the determination of trace organomercury cations based on their liberating effect on the enzyme inhibited by phenylthiourea in the o-dianisidine oxidation.

Development of a novel method for determination of mercury based on its inhibitory effect on horseradish peroxidase activity followed by monitoring the surface plasmon resonance peak of gold nanoparticles

TL;DR: The method was successfully applied to the determination of mercury in different water samples and under the optimum conditions, the calibration curve was linear in the concentration range of 1-220 ng mL(-1).

Determination of organic mercury species in soils by high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection

TL;DR: Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection was optimized for the simultaneous separation and quantification of nine organic mercury compounds: methyl-, ethyl-, phenyl-, methoxyethyl, ethoxyethyl-, benzoic and tolylmercury, mersalylic acid and nitromersol.

Analyses of Organic and Inorganic Mercury by Atomic Fluorescence Spectrometry Using a Semiautomatic Analytical System

TL;DR: In this paper, an improved method for the determination of total and organic mercury by decreasing analysis time (use of a dual circuit), sample size, and handling procedures and eliminating the need for a clean room condition while maintaining the detection limit below the parts per trillion (pptr) level.

Evaluation, mechanism and application of solid-phase extraction using a dithiocarbamate resin for the sampling and determination of mercury species in humic-rich natural waters

TL;DR: In this article, a method for the simultaneous determination of mercury species at sub-ng l-1 levels in humic-rich natural waters was evaluated, and the model derived indicated that the rate-determining step for collection of the mercury species is the release of these species from two major groups of sites present on the humic substances.
