Abstract
It is shown that loss of radioactivity from labelled mercury(II) solutions is due to reduction of some mercury(II) by reductants adventitiously introduced, followed by disproportionation of mercury(I) and loss of metallic mercury in the gas phase. The loss can be prevented by addition of a small excess of an oxidant such as permanganate.Entities:
