TL;DR: In this article, a process for the removal of mercury from aqueous solutions that have dissolved therein mercuric salts, organomercury compounds, or mixtures thereof is described.
Abstract: A process for the removal of mercury from aqueous solutions that have dissolved therein mercuric salts, organomercury compounds, or mixtures thereof comprises (a) contacting the solutions with an amount of hypophosphorus acid, phosphorous acid, or a water-soluble salt of hypophosphorus acid or phosphorous acid that is sufficient to reduce the mercuric and organomercuric ions in the solution to mercury and (b) separating the precipitated mercury from the solution.

TL;DR: Gas chromatography was employed to identify the mercurial compound involved in the Iraq outbreak of organomercury poisoning and only methylmercury was detected in human blood, hair, and tissues.
Abstract: Gas chromatography was employed to identify the mercurial compound involved in the Iraq outbreak of organomercury poisoning. Only methylmercury was detected in human blood, hair, and tissues. The quantity of methylmercury present correlates well with the quantity of organic mercury determined by selective atomic absorption.

TL;DR: In this article, the photolysis of symmetric and asymmetric organomercury compounds has been studied by CIDNP and no indications of the existence of RHg· radicals have been found.
Abstract: The photolysis of symmetric and asymmetric organomercury compounds has been studied by CIDNP. No indications of the existence of RHg· radicals have been found. Depending on the solvent, reactions occur from excited states with different spin multiplicities.
