	PSR Discoveries: Hot Idea: Mercury Unveiled
		Mercury is the smallest of the inner, rocky planets (Mars, Earth, and Venus) and the closest to the Sun.
		This hypothesis also predicts that Mercury should have higher concentrations of elements that have very high boiling points (called refractory elements), such as calcium and aluminum, and not much of the elements that boil at low temperatures (called volatile elements), such as sodium and potassium.
		This indicates that the surface in this region of Mercury is underlain by a chemically distinctive layer at depth.

	CPCS: Mercury and its Many Forms
		Mercury is not well absorbed across the skin so skin contact is not likely to cause mercury poisoning, especially with a brief one-time exposure.
		Inorganic mercury compounds are known as "mercuric salts." Some of the mercuric salts include: mercuric chloride, mercuric iodide, mercuric nitrate, mercuric sulfide, yellow mercuric oxide, red mercuric oxide, ammoniated mercury, mercurous chloride and mercurous acetate.
		A spill of a large amount of mercury (more than the amount of mercury in a household fever thermometer) can be dangerous to all members of the household including pets because of the mercury vapors in the air of the house.

	StarChild: The planet Mercury
		Mercury is very close to the Sun and has no substantial atmosphere.
		Scientists theorize that Mercury's field is due to an iron-bearing core or possibly to the solar winds.
		The surface of Mercury has been shaped by three processes: impact cratering where large objects struck the surface resulting in crater formation, volcanism where lava flooded the surface, and tectonic activity where the planet's crust moved in order to adjust to the planetary cooling and contracting.

	ATSDR - ALERT! Patterns of Metallic Mercury Exposure, 06/26/97
		Mercury is also used in other common consumer products such as fluorescent light bulbs, barometers, medical equipment such as blood pressure measurement instruments, and mercury switches in children's sneakers that light up.
		Because metallic mercury vaporizes into the air at room temperatures, it presents an immediate health risk to anyone spending a significant amount of time in a room where metallic mercury is sprinkled or spilled onto the floor, or where opened containers of metallic mercury are present.
		Mercury vapors are readily absorbed into the bloodstream from the lungs, and the human central nervous system, which is still developing during the first few years of life, may become damaged.

		Measurement of mercury in urine is the recommended biologic monitor for workers exposed to metallic and inorganic mercury.
		The concentration of mercury in blood reflects exposure to organic mercury as well as metallic and inorganic mercury; thus it can be influenced by the consumption of fish containing methylmercury.

	Mercury - Minnesota Pollution Control Agency
		Some mercury is natural in the environment.Some comes from our intentional uses of mercury, and some is a polluting byproduct of burning coal and certain mining and manufacturing processes.
		It is relatively easy to prevent mercury from some sources from entering the environment, but it may be very difficult to control mercury from other sources.
		On the other hand, the mercury in the emissions from burning coal or heating taconite pellets is difficult to capture and, even when captured, over time some of the captured mercury could escape to the environment.

	Mercury Free and Healthy, The Dental Amalgam Issue
		Resistances to mercury and the several antibiotics were examined in the oral and intestinal floras of six adult monkeys prior the the installation of amalgam fillings, during the time they were in place, and after replacement of the amalgam fillings with glass ionomer fillings (in four of the monkeys).
		Mercury was elevated in AD in most regions studied, but the high variability of mercury levels in both AD and control subjects prevented the AD-control difference from reaching significance.
		The aim of the present investigation was to study the elimination half-time of mercury in plasma, erythrocytes and urine over an extended period of time after amalgam removal in a group of 10 patients with subjective symptoms by the patients themselves referred to their amalgam fillings and a group of 8 healthy subjects.
