[eng] Mercury is a strong neurotoxin. It has adverse effects on the nervous and cardiovascular systems, it is also deleterious for several organs, and may act as immunotoxic and hormonal disruptor. This compound is released to the environment by several processes which have generated a widespread contamination throughout the whole planet. However, because of the physical-chemical properties of this metal, semi-volatility and water insolubility, the sink of most of it are the sediments of water bodies, namely marine and lacustrine systems. Bacterial processes transform mercury into methylmercury which is much more deleterious for the organisms and human beings. Methylmercury enters into the food chain and accumulates in fish and from fish in...
