Legislation on methylmercury within the European Union (EU), e.g. in food (national regulations) or water (EC Directives), requires that the determinations are of proven quality; thus implies that they should be carried out under strict quality control (QC). One method of achieving good quality cont
Although the parameters regulating mercury methylation in sediments are fairly well known, conditions controlling the formation and mobilization of methylmercury in aquatic sediments are still poorly understood. In this work the environmental factors governing the distribution and behaviour of total
Numerous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of interstitial water metal concentrations and simultaneously extracted metals/acid-volatile sulfide (SEM/AVS) ratios in explaining the acute toxicity of sediment-associated metals to benthic organisms. However, no full life-cycle chronic marine or est
