The methylation of mercuric chloride by human intestinal bacteria.

I R Rowland, P Grasso, M J Davies.   

Abstract

Most strains of staphylococci, streptococci, yeasts and E. coli isolated from human faeces, could synthesize methylmercury compounds. In contrast, few strains of obligate anaerobes could do so. Up to 6 ng methylmercury/ml were formed in 44 h from 2 mug mercuric chloride.
